Back in my elementary years, my favorite games were teks and pog. I would usually go roaming to other rooms inviting or challenging other kids to play teks or pog with me. Most of the times I got reprimenaded by my school teachers because I spent more time playing than staying in the classroom. During the afternoon, when it's dismissal time, I would also play tumbang-preso and patintero. I miss those times when I played those games especially the traditional Filipino games. Now, my younger cousins in the elementary and high schools have video and computer games for fun. How about you guys? What childhood games do you remember to have played before?

Oh, I love hide and seek, then we have patintero in the province.

I love playing during afternoons when I was in elementary, me and my classmates would run around the place and we would be noisy. rasp

When I was young at heart and tender in age, we used to play games with other kids like "shiatong, jolens, hide and seek, wrestling, karate kicks, patintero, goma games. I don't remember the others but I sure did have a lot of fun playing during those early years. It might be a good idea to conduct a tournament for adults in our area in those kids games! Would be fun I guess. Do you think so?lol

Hahaha! That's a great idea. It would definitely bring out the inner child from us adults once more. Who knows? Maybe we still haven't lost our winning touch in those games (",)

My childhood friends and I made up a game which we called "Escape". We later found out that it's similar to Cops and Robbers, except that with Escape there is no "base". Instead, the "cops" take their captives along with them. That was our favorite game and we played it over many summers, even into the night when we had to resort to using flashlights.

Some other games I have fond memories of are hide and seek, shato, piko, step-no, chinese garter, ten-twenty, habulang upo, mataya-taya, agawan base, luksong tinik, luksong baka, monkey-monkey, mother may i cross the river, doctor quackquack, marble games, saksak puso (morbid), langit-lupa, nanay-tatay, kickball...and then there were boardgames like monopoly, risk, cluedo, millionaire's game, and scrabble.

And also that game where the objective is to be the first to name the product being advertised on tv. Hehe.

Wow, cool! You had played so many games when you were a kid. And yeah I also played some of those games you mentioned but I forgot what they were called when I made the post hehehe. It's nice to remember the good old childhood games we played.

Hehehe ... I love to play games. honestly I have numerous scars in my legs for playing so much. I love to play patintero, luksong tinik and chinese garter to name some. There are still some that I forgot the name. Oh, the black one two three. I'm like a boy. Very active as my mom says so I didn't complain a bit when I realized that as a female, flawless legs would mean a lot as I grow, but I'm fine with having these scars, I love to play. Hahahaha .... Enjoy life. Take care=)

wow, good to reminisce those childhood days and the fun in playing even if we look really messy and dirty! lol anyway, when i was still very young, i used to play "shatong", "patintero", that one with chinese garter, "piko", "tumbang preso", touch ball, and many many more.. even a simple hide and seek, its really fun! oh, i just miss those days!

yes, i also notice children nowadays don't play those "larong lahi" at all.. they prefer computer, psp, and other video games.. maybe its good if they play some larong lahi too and see how fun playing those games.. happy

Hahaha I like that question you make me remember the past, and I am laughing right now, I remeber my friends those days in the province. My favorite game before is tumbang lata. You throw the can and you have to get it and place it on the middle, While your getting the can all of them should hide. Basically it's a tiring game but exciting game also. How days flies! Good night!

When i was a kid we have seasonal games. Funny but true, there are times it is season on playing skipping rope while on other months there is season of slipper game and so on. So we have lots of fun when i was young. All we do is laugh and play. We dont just stay home play video games or spend time on the pc. We have lots of interesting games to play.
