On this occasion, I would like to discuss a popular game that is played among children. When I was a kid, I played with marbles daily, often until late in the afternoons. These tiny little balls are simple toys, but with some imagination, they turn into hours of fun! Lately however, playing with marbles is rarely played by children, since they spend more time playing online games, chatting on social media or watching television. But parents, I urge you to encourage your child to engage in this entertaining activity. *** <sup><a href= "https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wAZqYER_0e8/VwIcjlOxMQI/AAAAAAAAAOo/X9hNnb8VcYgCVY9r_c7ZFS2z1b4O6_kQA/s1600/traditional%2Bvs%2Bmodern.jpg"> source </a></sup> ### Here I will discuss some of the benefits of playing with marbles, which I have quoted from the Ministry of Education and Culture page: *** ##### Development of motoric abilities Motoric movement is associated with physical coordination, brain cells and eye coordination – all these things are vital in the healthy growth and education of a child. Activities in the game of marbles involve throwing and flicking the balls. This helps to develop fine motor coordination and as we know, the better the motor skills are, the better visual coordination and concentration is in a child. ##### Development of cognitive abilities Children's thinking skills are stimulated in this game. For example, if the child wants to win the game then he needs to problems solve and use logic. ##### Social Skills The most important thing about learning through play is how friendships are established and how social skills are developed. Usually, the children work together to solve conflicts and problems. It is through play that they also learn how to communicate rationally. ##### The ability to compete The success of a child undergoing a technique that then gets a response from his opponents is a special gift for the child. The existence of competitive feelings in school age is very important to form a feeling of self-worth. *** <sup><a href= "https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B5brS_9CMAAijzE.jpg"> source </a></sup> ##### Organize emotions Playing marbles is fun for kids, it also helps the relax and recharge their “batteries”. When their energy is full, they are better prepared for more serious things, like learning and completing tasks at school. ##### Being honest Children also have the opportunity to develop a positive character and personality during play, like honesty and fairness. ##### Exercise carefulness and accuracy This game can train the child's brain to be more careful in its action and they can learn to keep a close and watchful on the things they do. <sup><a href="http://www.netralnews.com/news/pendidikan/read/56730/ini..i.lho..i..manfaat.bermain.kelereng.bagi.karakter.anak"> Reference </a></sup> *** <sup><a href= "http://beritaonline.id/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/dp3.jpg"> source </a></sup> After reading and learning the benefits of marble playing, especially in the fields of practicing motor skills, training thinking abilities, controlling emotions and socializing - it is desirable for parents to allow their kids to participate in this activity. I myself really like this game and have experienced the benefits for myself. Thank you for visiting and reading my blog, I hope you found this information useful and interesting. *** <em>This post has been edited by a member of the @blue-pencil team.</em>
