The emotional dimension of this traditional game demonstrates an average percentage of 86%, as observed through the attitudes and behaviors of participants engaged in the activity. The cognitive aspect demonstrates a notable percentage value of 90%, evidenced by the substantial enhancement in the participants' motor learning capabilities. Conclusion.
