Traditional games are considered relevant to the characteristics of elementary school students who tend to be active and enjoy playing, and are in line with the objectives of PJOK learning which not only emphasize physical aspects, but also social and emotional aspects. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. The subjects of the study were PJOK teachers and students at an elementary school. The results of the study showed that traditional games such as rope jumping, hide and seek, gobak sodor, and engklek. can improve students' gross motor skills, such as balance, agility, and coordination of movement. In addition, this activity also fosters cooperation, sportsmanship, and a spirit of togetherness among students.

Therefore, teachers suggest integrating traditional games as an alternative active learning strategy that is appropriate to child development.]]>
