Cultural differences are everywhere, and same stands true in China. There are some Cultural differences in how Chinese children are raised. Some parents are very strict towards their children and some are pampered with love and freedom. Similarly, for the games and toys used by the children in China, it’s also different from each other.

 

A lot of ipads, computer games, playstations and many other hi-tech things are not allowed in many schools in China. Also, these items are not available in rural districts of China nor they can afford to have the same. Thus, it is a matter of concern, what games do the kids play in their spare time?

 

Here is the complete list of the games which are very popular and usually played by the children -

 

SHUTTLECOCK (JIÀN ZI) ??

It is a game of foot. The shuttlecock will be passed from foot to foot by kicking and should not fall on the ground. It can be played anywhere and even adults and senior citizens play the same to stay active.

 

CHINESE YO-YO (DOU KONG ZHÚ) ???

It is also known by the name of Diabolo and is very famous all around the world. This popular Chinese game is used in various functions, performances, events, acts and plays.

 

CHINESE JUMP ROPE (TIÀO PÍ JIN) ???

A thin piece of elastic rope is used to play this game, where legs should be placed in a certain order and moved ahead accompanied by a rhyme or song. Once you cross the level, it gets tricky and rope is moved to higher and higher.
