traditional games
Old-fashioned group activities
Traditional games are activities passed down through generations, typically played without electronic devices or commercial equipment.
These include outdoor games like tag and hopscotch, board games like chess and backgammon, and cultural games specific to regions or communities.
The phrase often appears in contrast to video games or digital entertainment: The camp emphasizes traditional games over screen time.
