Each area has a traditional game, which is played by children. Recently, it started to vanish. This is truly terrible news, because of the fact that a traditional game is the inheritance from the older. Why do children choose modern games?' .The development of technology has led to the status quo, but technology is not at fault for this.
What we cannot deny is that children are more interested in modern games than traditional ones. Modern games are advantageous in less of movement: for example, Nintendo, play station, PC games, and online games are modern games which do not need children to move a lot. They only need to sit in front of TV or a computer, and then they can start it and enjoy it. However,it leads to some serious physical problems such as near-sightedness and obesity.
Children should be guided so that they can choose traditional games rather than modern games.For one thing, traditional games have a huge impact on children's brains and their communication with other children which are two elementary. skills in the adult world. Considering that childhood is important for children to learn something new, it will be disappointing if in this period children only spend the time in front of a computer or the television screen. For another, many traditional games represent one nation's history and culture like the kites in ancient China, which is a way to convey information, and still remains a popular national game now. Through playing those “old-fashioned” games, children can easily establish a direct awareness of national culture and customs.
All in all, we cannot deny that modern games have gone beyond traditional games. I just hope that traditional games will not vanish from our life, for they not only can train the youth by many skills physically, but also can recall the best moments with friends.
