INSTRUCTION

Children like to play, they need to run, chase, ride, skip and jump. The more they play, the more they want to play again.

Play is important for children because it practices their linguistic, cognitive and social skills and contributes to their general personality development. Children use their minds while playing, because they are thinking and acting as if they were another person. When they make such a transformation, they are taking a step forward abstract thinking in that they are freeing their thoughts from a focus on concrete objects. Play is also associated with creativity, especially the ability to be less literal and more flexible in one's thinking.

There are three different type children games.In this part i will explain the rules of game that how can we play them?

When we read this work we will able to play these three games .

LABYRINTH

SNAKE

CATCHING HANDKERCHIEF

*LABYRINTH

RULES

In this game children stand like a rectangle.

Runner order other children but catcher cannot order in this game.And when the game begins, escaper start to run and at the same time, catcher try to catch escaper. Escaper always try to sneak off from catcher. When the runner say CHANGE all of the children who are stand there turn right.

Yes we can see it in this picture.When the escaper say CHANGE road which is horizontal cancel and

vertical road is open.So catcher can’t go horizontal road.

GOALS

Children have to use their mind because when escaper run, he or she has to say change in correct area and also catcher has to guess when runner might say change, so two person has to use their mind. And also this game enjoy.

* CATCHING HANDKERCHIEF

RULES

First, students divide two groups.We make two teams from students.And this two teams stand oppose to eachother.One student keeps a handkerchief and.This student also is arbitrator and he or she controls this game and he or she stands middle of teams,when arbitrator say ‘first’ first players of two team start to run middle of the area to catch handkerchief.

For example we have two groups which name are A and B.Arbitrator said first and after that first player of each team start to run for catch handkerchief.If one player catch handkerchief , he or she has to bring it to her or his group. Furthermore, there is a tricky when player catch handkerchief, other player try to catch player who got handkerchief.If the person who escape from the chaser person catched, catched team lose one point.By contrast,if chaser person did not catch that running person, the team of running person would gain one point. so you should be careful when you try to catch handkerchief because you can win one point or you can lose one point.

GOALS

Studends have to think when they arrive middle of this area and they should decide very quickly and it is important because if they want to decide very fast they have to use their mind urgent.This is likely that we face in the real life, the fast we decide the more we will be successfull.
