One person should bend down and the other friends should put their hands on my back and jump and play. Whoever fails to jump is also considered out, and he is the one who has to crouch down for the others to jump. The player with the highest jump is declared the winner.

What are your rules? Did you make any changes to the rules to suit you?

Any number of people can play this game together. The first contestant of the game can be selected through games like 'saat poot thri', 'Utthi Pathalam' or 'Phooa… Thalaya…'. which are just like Rock, Paper, Scissors game.

• After selecting the first competitor the game should start.

• Then, the first competitor must stand crouched. Sit with both hands on the floor.

• The other participants in this game have to run and jump over the person who is crouching like a horse.

• The first contestant will have their hands on the floor until everyone has completed the first round.

• Then, in the second round, bend over with your hands on your feet.

• While jumping like this, the head of the first competitor should be bowed. If it is not upright, the jumpers say, "Cut off the head and give it to the dog!" They say Immediately he should bow his head.

• In the third round, the first competitor must hold the hands between the knuckles and ankles. The fourth round should be held together with the ankle. In this way, the height will increase little by little.

Of the characteristics of traditional games that we have discussed, which ones do you think are present in the traditional game you chose?

Many of the traditional games we have discussed are still played today. For example Rock, Paper, Scissors game, my son and daughter play this Rock, Paper, Scissors game to see who can do a task first or who can start a game first.

Did the kids have fun? Share your experience playing this traditional game with them. Feel free to tell us about the best moments you experienced during the activity.

My kids and I used to play these kind of activity games when we got time.Since my daughter is going to college, I play some games with my son in the evening. Yesterday we played a blindfold game called "Kannammuchi". It was very interesting and my son really enjoyed playing it.

At first I played catch him blindfolded but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't catch him. I admitted defeat and then blindfolded him and he heard the sound of my legs buckle and bangle and he easily found my place and caught me.

Similarly we both played a game called green horse (Pachai kuthirai) in which I crouched down as a horse and he jumped over me and increased the hight and he tried to jumpover. Whe i increase the horse height too hight , he couldnt jump and fall over me , it was funny and i laughed at hime he cried as looser. We both were enjoyed alot playing these kinds of games.
