Filipino Folkgames That Are Now Forgotten

When I was a kid, I used to play a lot of Filipino folkgames with my friends. We would play tumbang preso, patintero, luksong baka, and many others. These games were a lot of fun, and they helped us stay active and healthy.

But as I got older, I started playing fewer and fewer Filipino folkgames. These days, kids are more likely to be playing video games or watching TV than playing traditional games.

This is a shame, because Filipino folkgames are a part of our culture. They teach us important skills like teamwork, cooperation, and sportsmanship. They also help us connect with our heritage and learn about our history.

In this article, I’m going to talk about some of the Filipino folkgames that are now forgotten. I’ll also talk about why these games are important and how we can bring them back.

  • Tumbang preso
  • Patintero
  • Luksong baka

These are just a few of the many Filipino folkgames that are now forgotten. These games are important because they teach us important skills and help us connect with our heritage.
