Traditional games<\/p>\n
From Neraca<\/p>\n
It is saddening that our children have lost the roots of their
\nidentity. They do not know their heroes and are not familiar with
\ntraditional games. This state of affairs has been acknowledged by
\na noted cultural scholar.<\/p>\n
Dr. Endang Sri Hardiati said that Indonesian children in the
\nlast decade no longer knew traditional games in their daily
\nlives. In fact, traditional games are very important for their
\ngrowth, emotional satisfaction and happiness.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, children are closely acquainted with
\nsophisticated toys both imported and domestically produced.
\nAccording to the scholar, as far as the educational process is
\nconcerned, traditional games are more beneficial than modern
\ngames. And history has proven that traditional games can help to
\ndevelop children's potential, creativity, art and sports, and
\nnurture their sense of cooperation as well as togetherness.
\nTherefore, efforts must be made to revitalize the use of
\ntraditional games, which are readily available.<\/p>\n
Our forefathers have bequeathed a number of traditional games
\nsuch as hide and seek and making toy cars from pomeloes. We
\nshould not be ashamed to revive traditional cultural assets.
\nThere is no need to feel inferior or to be high minded.<\/p>\n
