Try to hide in a neighbor's backyard these days and see what happens.
Found it on google, but I had never heard of cocoleavio and I lived in Nevada, Upstate NY, MD, Northern and Southern Cali, and MO during elementary school years.
Speaking of games and moving around, I played 'dodgeball', 'greek dodgeball', and 'roman dodgeball' is different areas.
Regarding neighbors - yeah, kids don't play outside on their own like they used to and neighbors probably don't know each other as much, but our kids and neighbor kids played in each other's back yards. We had a hole in our fence for the kids. Most backyards in Cali are fenced and have been for a long time, so there's not the backyard freedom that there is in other parts of the country.
