The games I played in the old days.
When I was young, I didn't have any toys because I lived in the countryside where life conditions were very poor.
But I still played many games with other children. All the games are really simple, and the game materials can be easily found in our daily life. Here are some games.
斗鸡(dòu jī) chicken fighting
Children can play this game anywhere, especially in the winter. It will warm you as you play it.
This game is only played between two children. Standing with one leg, using your hands lifting the other leg up to your thigh and keeping it there. You could only move by hopping.
When you fight with someone, use the knee of your lifted leg to knock on the other until they fall down. While you are fighting, you need to hop to change your location and find the best chance and angle to fight them.
I have at least three tips for chicken fighting. One is putting your knee above theirs and pressing them down hard. The second is placing your knee under theirs and lifting them hard. The third one is that when they’re going to jump up and strike you heavily, just know this in advance and avoid them flexibly. These three tips can all lead them to fall down because they will lose their center of gravity.
That is all for today and I will introduce the next one soon.

This is correct, but because there is no verb in the main clause ('The games...in the old days'), it's a sentence fragment.

'one' is a bit ambiguous - the next tip, or the next game?

This is great work! The corrections are all quite small things. I was interested in this game, it sounds fun but difficult :)
