Knowledge and Frequency of Playing Traditional Filipino Games

Traditional Filipino games are popular among children in all communities, especially millennials. These games demonstrate how resourceful and innovative Filipinos are in creating these games. Being knowledgeable in the selected Filipino traditional games can help in getting a good performance, whereas those who do not have any idea struggle to perform those games. This prompted the study to determine the knowledge and frequency of playing the traditional Filipino games of third-year regular and irregular BPED students. The researchers utilized the descriptive quantitative design. The findings revealed that BPED students were knowledgeable on the selected traditional Filipino games. Among the three elements of the game, the mechanics garnered the highest scores than the history and equipment. In the frequency of playing the selected Traditional Filipino Games, the Patintero game is always played by respondents. Lastly, there is no significant relationship between the students’ knowledge and the frequency of playing the selected traditional Filipino game. Based on the findings, the researchers concluded that there is no significant relationship between knowledge and the frequency of playing traditional Filipino games. Even if students are familiar with the games, this does not guarantee that they will play them more frequently.
