This publication contains a collection of 16 unpublished games (with pictures), divided into 2 groups: revisited traditional games and new made-up games. It could have been called "old games with new elements" and "new games with old elements". In fact, my aim of providing teachers, educators and children's entertainers with a collection of engaging, functional, effective, enjoyable and educational activities, meant that I couldn't overlook traditional playground games. Bearing this in mind, I have tried to concentrate on developing both feasible and enjoyable activities, either indoors or outdoors (although given the choice I would without doubt plump for the latter), for boys and girls aged between 6 and 11, in small and large groups whilst also maintaining the preventative measures against infection which gradually arose at the turn of 2020, the consequences of which have been felt by schools as well as recreational and sports facilities. It therefore presents recreational ideas and a model for primary school teachers and operators of extra-curricular and recreational groups of how to approach physical and group games during the current health emergency, where the necessity of physical and social distancing cannot and must not lead to the breakdown of the most natural and human basic needs during childhood development. "In defiance" of the current virus and any future pathogens of a similar nature which may jeopardize the correct development of our youngest citizens, I have called on my 30 year experience and training in the field of recreational education and group games to construct a "model repertoire". It aims to offer quality recreational games, enriched by the use of updated co-operative equiment (which have been marked in each game), which involve movement and can be played in groups whilst maintaining a safe distance and an individual use of materials (often essential to the game) guaranteeing the health and hygiene safety of the participants. Become familiar with these games, get to know them inside out, try them out, experiment with the many possible variants which increase the complexity of the game and the input from participants, understand how and which skills and abilities are needed from the players and the adult supervisor will, without doubt, improve their recreational educative skills. This will in turn lead to increased satisfaction and motivation in not only promoting old games which never grow tired by revising and updating their elements and contexts but also by inventing new ones based on the most effective and common parts of the old traditional regional, national and international favourites. This is why the "original" games contained in this publication should really be considered "examples".

Delicious Pixels: Food in Video Games introduces critical food studies to game scholarship, showing the unique ways in which food is utilized in both video game gameplay and narrative to show that food is never just food but rather a complex means of communication and meaning-making. It aims at bringing the academic attention to digital food and to show how significant it became in the recent decades as, on the one hand, a world-building device, and, on the other, a crucial link between the in-game and out-of-game identities and experiences. This is done by examining specifically the examples of games in which food serves as the means of creating an intimate, cozy, and safe world and a close relationship between the players and the characters.

In The Games People Play, Robert Ellis constructs a theology around the global cultural phenomenon of modern sport, paying particular attention to its British and American manifestations. Using historical narrative and social analysis to enter the debate on sport as religion, Ellis shows that modern sport may be said to have taken on some of the functions previously vested in organized religion. Through biblical and theological reflection, he presents a practical theology of sport's appeal and value, with special attention to the theological concept of transcendence. Throughout, he draws on original empirical work with sports participants and spectators. The Games People Play addresses issues often considered problematic in theological discussions of sport such as gender, race, consumerism, and the role of the modern media, as well as problems associated with excessive competition and performance-enhancing substances. As Ellis explains, "Sporting journalists often use religious language in covering sports events. Salvation features in many a headline, and talk of moments of redemption is not uncommon. Perhaps, somewhere beyond the cliched hyperbole, there is some theological truth in all this after all."

During this global pandemic there are many unknowns for teachers. However, one thing is clear - social distancing, at least in some form, is here to stay for the foreseeable future. Attempting social distancing with young children raises many questions: how is it possible? How can we incorporate it into games and activities? How do we help and support children with this lack of human connection? Written by an early education expert and consultant, '101 Games To Play Whilst Socially Distancing' provides a simple, and step-by-step description of games covering the entire curriculum that take place within the context of social distancing. Resources have been stripped back, to leave a collection of activities where storytelling, role-play, drama, song, and movement come to the fore. Wellbeing is at the heart of this book. Children's mental health has been tested recently in ways never experienced by earlier generations, and wellbeing and happiness are central to all the games. This book teaches: * A wide range of outdoor games, and all the activities can be played in the outdoor environment if required * Many games that develop memory and listening skills * Multiple maths games, that develop skills in number, shape and calculating * A wide selection of early phonics and literacy games * Activities ideal for Kindergarten, Reception, Preschool, Key Stage 1, Pre-K, Nursery - all children between the ages of 3-7 * Inspiration that is ideal for teachers, junior sports coaches, preschool workers, childminders - anyone that works with young children * A mixture of old classics tweaked to fit with social distancing, combined with numerous games that have been invented afresh for this book '101 Games To Play Whilst Socially Distancing' is the ultimate handbook for teachers and educators seeking ideas and structure at this historic moment, and a source of inspiration providing fun, laughter and learning in these difficult times.
