The Philippine Traditional Games is our cultural treasure, that is loved, enjoyed and
cherished by our ancestors from generation to generations. As for me, the very essence of
playing our Philippine Traditional games is that, it preserves our culture and traditions as a
Filipino, as well as it offers great benefits to ones being. Through the means of the continuous
engagement of youth to our traditional games, it helps them understand better and reconnect
the Filipino cultures and keep these cultural values of our ancestors alive.
Aside from the awakening of our culture, it also helps the youth to develop and improve
their skills not just physically but also emotionally, socially and mentally. It teaches them the
ability to communicate well, socialize with others, be strategic and learn cooperation among
others since games are mostly played by groups. Thus, I can say that Philippine Traditional
Games is greatly significant, for it provides us with a lot of values as an individual and a Filipino.
May it always be practiced and never be forgotten especially in this modern generation so that
we can pass it to the next one.
