Through this poster presented by Jesús Ibáñez at the First Congress on History and Heritage in Viver, we remember when the street was a playground.
Traditional games were much more than just entertainment: they were the language of our childhood, the place where we learned to share, compete in healthy rivalry and create lasting memories. With a cardboard horse or a toy kitchen, children of yesteryear expressed their emotions, developed skills and forged friendships. Meanwhile, the adults gathered at the pelota court or around a card game.
Where have those games that filled the squares with laughter gone?
- ‘Chispa, centella y rayo’
- ‘Soldaditos de plomo’
- ‘La culebra’
- ‘Salt statues’
- ‘At one o'clock, the mule’
- ‘The skipping rope’
Will we let them fall into oblivion?
At Viver, we believe that these games are part of our cultural heritage and we want to keep them alive.
