SHATONG

Similar to hopscotch, "shatong" is a traditional Filipino game that is usually played outside with a grid created on the ground. In order to avoid stepping on the lines or missing their turn, players alternately hop or leap through the grid in a predetermined manner or sequence. The game can be played alone or with several people, and it frequently has different obstacles or skill levels. Because it encourages physical exercise, balance, coordination, and strategic thinking, "shatong" is a well-liked and entertaining past time for Filipino families and kids.
