What kinds of party games or party activities were popular?

Well face cards were popular with my friends but not in my home. Mother was very set against the use of them. However Monopoly and clue were two of the games that we played a lot in my youth. That was the inside games at least. In the summer we played what are now referred to as Night Games by the youth. They included "No Bears are out tonight", "Kick the can", and "Hide and Seek". We also played Cowboys and Indians a lot then as well. The popular activities were outdoor bar-b-ques and hot dog roasting by the fire. We did a lot of that and I still enjoy it today. Dad did a lot of Dutch oven cooking as well which was always really good.
