Overview Of The Playground Games

By Mayra Pierce


Chimpanzees and other primates have the ability to use representations, for example, some use verbal communication as part of a form of symbolic play. Games played by chimpanzees have the same characteristics as that of all mammals. The emergence of symbolic play occurs exclusively in human children, along with the symbolic language that is intrinsically inherent to their God given nature(the playground games).

Game are considered as part of human experience and present in all cultures. They are inherently a human activity. All of us have learned to relate to our family, social and cultural environment through play. It's a rich, broad, versatile and ambivalent concept that involves a a various categorizations. Many definitions have been stated about game as well, the dictionary of Royal Academy sees it as a recreational exercise rules under which it won or lost. However the polysemy of this and the subjectivity of various authors imply that any definition is only a partial approach to this entertaining phenomenon.

Game of marbles (fingernail ball) are excellent examples of children's game with rules, they are playable by 6 years of age. In history of human species, formal game appeared as a result of sedentary need for mental and physical development. In formal game the object of each game is defined and governed by the rules themselves, not representations. Thanks to this ability to set rules and play within the species has been able to build key game such as democracy, religion and science.

They are considered a free for all activity: a voluntary pastime, no one is forced to play. The concept resides in a space with few limitations and in a pre-established time constraints. Games have an uncertain character, they function as a creative, spontaneous and original activity, the outcome of each game fluctuates, which motivates the presence of pleasant uncertainty that captivates us all.

Early game and varied positively contributes to all aspects of growth and is linked to four basic dimensions of child development that are psychomotor, intellectual, social and affective-emotional eventually. Stimulate the capacity to reason, to encourage reflective thinking and representative. Create sources of potential development, ie what can be.

Promote the development of language and abstract thought. Game plays in mammals. Mammals play to learn. In fact the main feature of game is to learn.

Game universal, ie, that people of all cultures have always played. Many game are repeated in most societies. It present in history of mankind despite the difficulties at certain times to play, and the first industrial societies. Evolves according to age of players and has different characteristics depending on the culture in which it studied.

They are more solemn game also have been transmitted from generation to generation, but its origins date back to very ancient times. They have not only passed from father to son, but in its preservation and dissemination have had much to see the institutions and organizations that were concerned that would not be lost with the passage of time. They are closely linked to history, culture and traditions of country, a region or a nation. Its rules are similar, regardless of where they are developed.
