Games for Children
Games for Children is like Work
for adults. With this I mean that I cannot imagine an adult who doesn't
work, or a child who doesn't play. I think playing games is the way for
children to learn, to explore, to know, to imagine, to share, to create,
everything they do has to do with games, for them, even the most serious
things have a game-like side, and I think that's because games is something
serious to them.
I have some flashes of my
childhood, and I can see myself playing "tilin tilin campana", "marbles",
"la vieja", "la farolera" among others. I remember very little of my childhood
which is not related to games, so I must have spent lots of time playing
in my early years.
I sometimes tell my children
"oh, you only think of playing games", and then I reflect "thanks God"!
they are children, what else do I expect?
