Childhood

I was born in the a village and I was could be found walking on (you wouldn't really want to say I walked the streets. It has a different meaning)  playing in the streets with my friends all summer. If we did  were  not walking  playing on the streets, we were to be found going to playing on the banks of the river. We would lie down on the sand, out our legs outstretched in the sun or swim on in the water river for hours. We walked and walked from morning till night.

Some good bits to your essay. I have just made a few grammatical and stylistic suggestions above.

Hope that helps

Kind regards

Just if you are interested. Childhood, as I might write it for myself:

I was born is a small village and spent much of my childhood, including the hot summers playing on the streets with my friends.

If we weren't on the streets, we were on the banks of the river playing there. We would spend many days, lying in the sand with our legs outstretched like frogs underneath the warm sun, or would splash around and swim in the warm waters of the river.

From morning till night, we would be out playing, running, jumping and climbing trees everyday.
