It’s always been just hide-and-seek for me as well.

Jenna and Skye both said it is "Hide-and-seek". So it's 2-to-1. Wikipedia doesn't seem to know, either.

@Steven – I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt since you pay far closer attention to these types of things than do I.

I think if in Ohio they call it “Hide and Go Seek” we in Maine should definitely refer to it by some other name. :)

Perhaps I’ll quiz the other girls this evening to see if there’s a consensus among the Danley sisters.

No, I’ve heard lots of Yanks call it that. Hayley is attentive to the cultural norms of your planet.

@Steven Pam – It is “hide and seek”, I think. She’s, like, five. Cut her some slack already. :)

This is such a great story, Hayley. I like that Daddy had you read back what you told him. I really enjoyed listening to you talk about it. You’re doing very well with your reading! What a great way to spend time together.

That’s an interesting story. I wonder what it’s about?

In Australia (and maybe England), “hide and go seek” is just called “hide and seek”.
