DEFINITION

It is a popular game that is played

in areas with potential hiding
points, such as a forest, a park, a
garden or a large house. The first
player they count is the one left to
find those who are hidden and win
until he finds all the players.
HISTORY

• The origin of hide and seek is unknown, some people

attribute it to the Chinese, another to the ancient
Greece where Hide and seek is called escape.
• Many centuries ago the people thought if you play Hide
and Seek at night, you will find the devil and you will hide
for ever in the hell. For this reason the people only could
play hide and seek until 9 p.m.

FABLE OF HIDE AND SEEK

Once upon a time all the feelings

and emotions gathered in the world.
When boredom had yawned for
the third time, madness, as
always crazy, proposed: Do we
play hide and seek? The intrigue
raised the intrigued eyebrow,
and the curiosity without being
able to restrain itself, asked: To
the hiding place ?, and how we
play the game?
FABLE OF HIDE AND SEEK

It is a game - explained the

madness - in which I cover my face
and start counting from one to a
million, while you hide and, when I
have finished counting, the first of
you find, will take my place to
Continue the game.
FABLE OF HIDE AND SEEK

The enthusiasm and the

euphoria started to dance
the, the happines jumped
and try to convince doubt
and apathy, which was
never interested in
anything. But not everyone
wanted to participate. The
truth preferred not to hide.
For what? If in the end they
always found her.
FABLE OF HIDE AND SEEK

One, two, three, ... began to count the madness. The

first to hide was the laziness that, as always, was
dropped behind the first stone of the road. Faith
rose to heaven, and envy tried to hide behind the
shadow of triumph that, with its own effort, had
managed to climb to the top of the highest tree.
Generosity was almost not enough to hide.

Every place he found seemed wonderful to one

of his friends: that if a crystalline lake, ideal for
beauty; that if a slit of a tree, perfect for shyness;
that if a gust of wind, magnificent for freedom; so
he ended up hiding in a ray of sunshine.
Selfishness, on the other hand, found a very
good place from the beginning: ventilated,
comfortable; but, only, just for him.
FABLE OF HIDE AND SEEK

The madness found all fellings but only

love, did not appear anywhere. The
madness looked behind each tree, under
each stream of the planet, on top of the
mountains .When he was give up, he
spotted a rose bush and its roses and,
taking a fork, began to move the branches
when, suddenly, a painful scream was
heard: The thorns had hurt love in the
eyes. Madness did not know what to do to
apologize: he cried, implored, apologized
and even promised to be his slave for all
live. Since, for the first time, hide and
seek was played on earth, love is blind
and madness always, accompanies it.
