| Summary | "Games for All Occasions" by Mary E. Blain is a collection of children's games and activities written in the early 20th century. This work compiles a variety of games ranging from traditional outdoor play to indoor amusements, suitable for young children and their families. The book emphasizes the joy of play and provides an array of options for entertainment that engage both young ones and adults, promoting fun for all ages. The opening of the book presents a heartfelt preface that highlights the importance of play in human life, suggesting that adults often overlook the simple joys associated with games. Blain argues for the revival of childlike exuberance in adults, encouraging them to join in the fun and playfulness that games bring. Following the introduction, a variety of games designed for different age groups is listed, featuring detailed instructions on how to play and emphasizing the game's ability to foster joy, connection, and creativity among participants.
