Of course, the answers will depend largely, on which country, state or county are you speaking of.

In Australia, schoolgirls in the eastern states played netball [mainly called just "girls' Basketball", at the time] and they played rounders.

In Western Australia, they also played Field Hockey.

These constituted the 'official' games/sports they played.

In addition to these more formal activities, girls loved playing skippy, where they used a long rope and each girl took turns to 'jump into' it. They also played hop-scotch, knuckles, ball catchy games of various kinds, kiss chasey with the boys, hula hoops and 'Queenie-queenie, who's got the ball?'

'I spy' remains a favourite game of young ones to this day.
