I think that one difference between the two cultures is that the Yemeni children’s games could be divided into different types like gender, age, environment, the players’ culture. For the American culture it didn't really matter people and children just played the games thay they wanted to play. One similarity is that both cultures still play the same games from years ago. I think that the difference betweent them is kind of interesting because of how they do things to the American culture. I also think the the similarity is good because most people and children would enjoy looking back or playing new games from the years before or when just introduced to that game.

One Difference is that the gender, and age is different yo play a game. One reason is because the boys games are more violent. The girls must not like the violents. One Simililarity is that they both play a game when they grow up.

One major similarity is that the boys think that only they should play and not the girls. One major difference would be is that it seems like their entire childhood is based on this, especially for the boys proving they are men. So I think that Americans gample for luxury and not an actual need , while the Yemeni base it on what kind of man the boy will become. Surprised

I think that us boys and their boys are the same. They like violent video games and we do too. We also like to show our awesome strength too.
