(Short Conversation) Indonesian Traditional Games

A: Did you use to play traditional games when you were a kid?

A: I liked playing hide and seek (petak umpet), mancala (congklak), and fortress (bentengan). 

B: Some other games are also fun... gunnysack race (balap karung), stilt (egrang), and jumping rope (lompat tali). 

A: True. In fact, it's still played now by kids in many regions in Indonesia. 

B: Yeah... climbing pinang trunk (panjat pinang) is also a favorite one. 

A: It's nice to see those games are not forgotten, huh?

A: Agree. Anyway, is there any traditional games competition in your neighborhood? 

B: Yes... it's usually to celebrate Indonesian Independence Day. It's fun to see it.
