What games do you play during your childhood? I believe all of you here will have some favorite games to play during your childhood. I do not know whether childhood game will it be different in different country. My childhood game will be dumpling stone, where we will need 5 small pouches which made by placing some bean inside a pouch and sealed. First you need to put all the 5 pouched on the floor and pick one and throw it to the air and pick another pouch from the floor. So now you will have 2 pouches in your hand, now you have to throw the 2 pouches in your hand to the air and pick another one until all the pouches on the floor have picked up. After you have picked up all the pouches without any failure, you will need to proceed with picking up 2 pouches at once and this will increasing each time you finish a round. It is quite fun and we enjoy this game a lot. What will be your childhood game and can you share with us here?

Oh, that's Filipino native street games. Chinese garter is like a long conjoined rubber band or garter. There are three or more players, the two player will hold the garter or rubber at both ends and the other player will jump over until they reach the higher part.
To be able to play piko, players will make a squares like line on the ground and one piece of any stone or anything solid and players will step on that squares until they conquer the whole square.
Sipa is more of knee, arm and foot games.
Whew! I hope I explained it right.
