What is your favorite bit of childlore? - Lemmy.World

Childlore is folklore passed directly between children, without the input of adults. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childlore [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childlore] Stuff I can think of off the top of my head are paper fortune tellers, summoning Bloody Mary/the candyman, the cool S, parody songs like “Jingle bells Batman Smells” and “Joy to the world, the teacher’s dead” etc. This stuff has intrigued me since, well since I was a kid. I always wondered where they came from. I never saw adults doing that stuff, so I figured another kid had to have come up with it.
