  • Childhood Games: Classics, Crazes and the Occult in the Playground
    Feb 28 2026

    In January, I asked people if they wanted to share any children’s folklore as part of my February theme. As a branch of study, this largely refers to folklore created, shared, and maintained by children. Adults are not involved in its generation. So, contributors could share folklore they remembered from their childhood. Or they could share what they’d heard from children in their lives now.

    Most responses came from those sharing memories of childhood folklore, and broadly fell into three categories. We’ve already covered urban legends and children’s beliefs.

    This time, we're going to focus on games. So what did my listeners play as children, both in the schoolyard and at home?

  • Children's Beliefs: Superstitions, Luck, and the Brenin Lwyd
    Feb 21 2026

    In January, I asked people if they wanted to share any children’s folklore as part of my February theme. As a branch of study, this largely refers to folklore created, shared, and maintained by children. Adults are not involved in its generation. So, contributors could share folklore they remembered from their childhood. Or they could share what they’d heard from children in their lives now.

    Most responses came from those sharing memories of childhood folklore, and broadly fell into three categories. As a result, this episode and the two that follow will use those categories.

    Urban Legends refers to the stories or urban legends that people shared. Games and Practices refers to things that people did. Monsters and Beliefs refer to (surprise, surprise) things people believed!

    In this episode, we’ll explore some of the beliefs people heard and spread in their childhood, including supernatural beings like witches, love divination, and superstitions!
