You just hang out and do fun and stupid shit, it's nice to have special place for it but a construction site and under the bridge is good enough. Problem is modern parents are extremely anxious.
what fun and stupid shit?
Like play games (like war or something), roam around, make fires, have "gangs", play other pretend stuff (basically role playing but without any real rules ) - ask your parents and grandparents what they were up to when they were kids.
