Answer 1

yes in frist grade

Answer 2

I remember it. I haven't seen kids playing handslap games for a very long time. I see them with their mobile phones though! Teach her, then she can teach her friends and they can have some good old fashioned fun

Answer 3

Now I am singing that in my head! I haven't thought of that in years. My grand is 11 and I don't think she has ever heard it.

Do you guys remember how it goes exactly?

The weather is nasty here in Florida so we have lots of free time stuck in doors.

Thanks for a fun memory.

Yes..they do play it but they usually start older than 6.  Mine started learning it around 7 or 8.

my son and daughter (3 and 7) play mary mack together.  They only know half of it though.  I grew up on hand slap games so when we're bored somewhere waiting on something we learn  a new one.
