5 Traditional Filipino Games For Kids to Play

Are your kids virtually active but physically inactive? Manage screen time through interactive family time. Maximize outdoor play this Summer by introducing different and unique Filipino games to your kids! This is not just a way to improve physical health but also an opportunity to practice creativity, adaptability, and resourcefulness. Here are 5 Pinoy games to get you started!

  1. Tumbang Preso

Did you know that you can use your slippers to play games? With just an empty can and chalk, you are all set to play tumbang preso. In this game, players use a slipper as “pamato” to hit a can guarded by an opponent. Need a refresher? Watch this tutorial from Basta Sports!

  1. Patintero

If you feel like running, Patintero is good exercise! This game of blocking and escaping is also known as Harangang-Daga. Because similar to a mouse chase, the game is a race to cross the opponent’s territory without being tagged. Here is a quick Patintero tutorial from Basta Sports!

  1. Shato

It’s Shato time! This traditional Filipino game is like a native version of the popular sport baseball. But instead of a bat and a ball, Shato uses a pair of sticks, one of which is longer than the other. The longer stick functions as a bat to hit the shorter stick. Bring your best sticks while watching the game mechanics on this episode of Basta Sports!
