Do you play this game when you are young? Didn't care about the heat of the sun just to play with friends?
And then went home rotten and dirty but feeling happy cause you had a fulfilled day? Getting used to be hit by rod as you've gone home? Well then, you are certified naughty child! 😂 (Just kidding) You are one of those individual who enjoy his childhood life! 😉

I took this picture while on the field. It flashes all my memories back when I was a kid when I saw them playing. Yes, I was one of those kids who played it too.
Maybe all kinds of games before i played it all. Chinese garter, luksong tinik (jumping over thorns), luksong baka (jumping over the
cow), tumba lata (knock down the can), tago-tagoan (hide and seek), market day, jolen (marbles) and many more are traditonal of Filipino children's game. As well as men's games, I played too. I remember myself being caught into trouble, get injured and, as I went home I always get scolded and spank as part of discipline.
But it ain't stop me. I sometimes cut classes just to play with friends. As a grown up now, I'd realized that some of those attitude aren't good but it was written in story of my life. I have never regret any of those.
I can say that those jumping and hiding are worth it, satisfying my younghood and considering it as a step of growing.

Those games helps every children develop ability, good qualities and help them how to socialize with others, which is very important as they grow.

But sadly, as the world evolved and reach the high technology, some children today didn't play the games like we did before. But instead, kids today
holds electronic gadget as their leisure, play games, socializing using an app but get terrified socializing into someone personally.

Anyways, we have our
freedom to make choice, it depends on us how to use our free time or especially the parents to help children choose what to play, how and where it should be done.

THANK YOU for reading. 😊

@marylizacaindoy always my pleasure ate. Thank you thank you glad my post made you happy. 😁

I live in the Philippines and I see kids playing with tires, just like the kids in your photo, most every day. A lot better exercise than a video game. You are also learning physics along the way. When I was a child in the US, we climbed trees and made our own fun, invented games. I believe we were better of than the virtual gaming of today!
Thanks and God bless!

This is what I love about people in the province. Most of them enjoy even the simplest things. Unlike here in Manila where I grew up. I never experienced playing that, but I heard from my mom that she used to play it too. Haha. She recalled the fun of playing it before. How I wish kids here in Manila could try doing stuff outside of their houses, such as that in the picture.

Mee too!. Childhood games.

Buti nga naranasan natin to at may ikukwento tayo kay steemit haha.. Salamat napaiyak ako nung binabasa ko to

Kids today should go out and play with friends. Have fun while they're still kids. 😉
