The Book of Sports: Containing Out-door Sports, Amusements and Recreations, Including Gymnastics, Gardening & Carpentering

"The Book of Sports" by William Martin is an old-fashioned guide filled with fun outdoor activities and games perfect for children. Back in the mid-1800s, this book taught kids how to play all sorts of games, get good exercise, and even learn about gardening and building things. It starts by telling everyone how important it is for kids to play outside; then it jumps right into explaining how to play cool games like "Ring Taw" and other outdoor sports for summer and winter. But it's not all just fun, some games teach about science like motion, trying to make learning enjoyable.
