                    Traditional Games Promote Values

Traditional games are one of the most entertaining activities that benefit body and mind in many ways. All of us have heard famous sayings such as ‘A healthy mind lives in a healthy body’, and ‘All study and no play makes Jack a dull boy’. Sports and games are undoubtedly the building blocks of the health and character. Their importance in the over-all and holistic development of children cannot be denied. Let’s see how traditional games promote values in society.  

Discipline

Traditional games instill in us many values and virtues. The first is a sense of discipline. All sports are time bound activities. They start at fixed time, continue for a specified amount of time and then there is always ending time. The player has to do his best within the given time to win game. This time-limit makes him aware of the value of time. He prepares himself keeping the time in mind.  

Focus and Concentration

Secondly, games teach us focus and concentration. The player focuses on strategies to win a game. For example in order to score the target in a cricket match, he keeps the target in mind and plays accordingly. This enhances his focus.

Teamwork and Cooperation

Thirdly, traditional games teach us teamwork, camaraderie, and cooperation. A player has to play in coordination with other team members. He learns how to adjust and adapt in relation with others. This ability to work in a group and team is very essential in the current times. Later on I life one has to work always in a team, at work, research projects, or any type of work, it is all team work. So team work one learns the best at playground.

Sportsmanship

Fourthly, traditional games teach us sportsmanship. We learn good etiquette and polite behavior with our opponents. Games also teach us how to accept defeat and further self-improvement. So sports indirectly help us build a strong character. We must encourage young children to play at least one sport regularly.

In conclusion it can be said sports are highly beneficial for us. They are source of fun and excitement. However, they also build our character. We cannot separate fun factor from character building while playing sports.
