Hi, J'Anette, At 81 it always amazes me at how much information about our former lives has been lost to the younger generation. Here is a song your grandmother probably sang. I Don’t Want To Play In Your Yard / Playmate It has a line about sliding down the cellar door, which would probably have been a wooden door. Try putting cellar door into your browser. Bilco company has a picture of a cellar door that is open, but you should be able to see how children would have fun sliding down the closed door. LaVerne
