Indigenous Games We Play - Kho Kho

Kho Kho is an immensely popular sport in India. In some parts of India it is even played on a professional level. Kho kho is very popular with children and is often part of the games class in schools. In Kho Kho, one team kneels on the ground in a line, but with alternate persons facing opposite directions. The other team sends in one or more members, who have to avoid being touched by the chaser. He is allowed to dodge by running through the line of squatters, but the chaser can only run in one direction and cannot pass between the squatters. He however can pass the turn to nay of his team mates who are kneeling on the ground. This game is very quick, requires good fitness levels and is excellent for overall development of your child. It is a quick and exciting game and can be played for hours together. Also, it does not need any training or equipment and can be played by almost anyone!
