EXCERPT:
Step into the world of Laro ng Lahi, where every page brings back the games that made Filipino childhood bright, noisy, and full of laughter. Long before gadgets and apps, kids filled the streets with the sound of running footsteps, friendly teasing, and that unmistakable joy of shouting, “Laro tayo!”
In these pages, you’ll rediscover classics like Patintero, where players weave through lines like quick flashes of lightning, and Tumbang Preso, the legendary battle between a tin can and one very determined Filipino kid. You’ll meet Langit-Lupa, a game that teaches you to think fast; Piko, the hop-and-jump challenge of skill and balance; Sipa, the game that proves one feathered washer can spark hours of fun; and Taguan, the never-ending thrill of hiding in the perfect spot.
Each game is introduced with a simple explanation, a bit of cultural history, and a lively illustration ready for coloring. As you explore these pages, you’ll see how every game carries a lesson—teamwork, agility, fairness, courage, and the Filipino knack for turning even the simplest objects into an adventure.
This book is not just about coloring. It’s about remembering—or discovering for the first time—the magic of Filipino play. Whether you live in the Philippines or across the ocean, these games connect generations, bridge stories, and remind every child that heritage is something you can touch, learn, and celebrate.
So pick a page, grab your colors, and jump right in.
