"The era nowadays is all gadgets, we want to invite people to remember various traditional games when they were young. There are seven games that we present that they can freely choose," he explained.

According to him, the enthusiasm of the community to reminisce with traditional games was quite large. In fact, from the target of 50 participants, 70 participants registered and took part in this event.

"We're surely very grateful, seeing the enthusiasm of the residents," he added.

Darti Isyanti (50), one of the Congklak game participants admitted that she was happy to enjoy childhood games again. She assessed traditional games are more challenging and can increase social interaction between people.

"I'll introduce this traditional game to my students, thus the traditional game which is one of the nation's cultures does not become extinct," she closed.
