to play skipping rope/jump rope
to play elastics/French skipping
to shoot marbles
to play hide and seek
to play with modeling clay
to play dolls
to play spinning top
to play chess
to play parcheesee
to play checkers
to play table games
to play goose ( al la oca)
to play a las tabas.
to play al mus/ a la brisca/ al poker
Can anyone correct if there are any mistakes? And add new games?

Yes, play elastics is OK. Sorry I skipped that one.

gallina ciega = blind man's buff (or bluff)
play grown-ups (instead of husbands and wives)
