Peep-Pie

Every child learns how to play peek-a-boo but for some reason our family has always called this game Peep-Pie. I know, weird, right? I have no idea why or where this originated. All I know is that my grandparents played Peep-Pie with me and now I do it with my grandchildren.

How about you? Have you ever heard of Peep Pie? What do you say when you play this game with littles?

This is a blog hop and I would love for you to link up and leave me a comment!

  1. Hello Patsy, Glad to know we are not the only families who played peep-pie! Isn’t it remarkable how traditions are passed down from one generation to the next? Thanks so much for writing and do come back and visit NanaHood.com again!

  2. My parents who were born in the early 1900’s played peep-pie with us when we were small. And I have played it with our children and grandchildren. I had not realized that it was unusual until one of my daughter’s-in-law recently commented that I was the only person that she knew who played peep-eye with the babies!

  5. My mother who is from PA. always say’s “Peep-eye” and she covers her eyes when playing with Paislee. I have always heard Peek-a-boo in the south.

  6. That is pretty cute… We do have some other terms only us in the family knows what it means ;)..

    Most all of my people came down to florida from Virginia and through the Carolinas and Georgia,except for one lineage that came directly into colonial Georgia. They were Salzburgers.

  9. My father in law has always said “peep-pie”….I always thought it was a combo of peek-a-boo and (maybe) “sweetie-pie”….Now, I need to ask him where he picked it up! 😉

  16. Never heard it called that but isn’t it funny how these family traditions carry down the line….

  18. That’s a really interesting regionalism. (Retired English teacher here.) Thanks for sharing this variant. I have lived in HI, CA, UT, KS, WI, WV, VA, & DC. When I lived in Milwaukee for 4 years, and they call drinking fountains “bubblers.” Who knew? But more to the point. CUTE KID!!!

  29. Never heard it called that. Either way the little ones love to play it. Our two year granddaughter is just now enjoying being the finder.
