Abstract

Traditional games play a vital role in developing children’s motor skills, especially when practiced in a family setting. This article aims to examine the impact of traditional games within families on the development of children’s gross and fine motor skills through a literature review and case studies. The study employs a qualitative approach, combining the analysis of relevant literature and direct observation of families engaging in traditional games. The literature review identifies various traditional games that contribute positively to motor skill development. Games like jump rope, congklak (a traditional board game), and egrang (stilts) are known to improve coordination, balance, muscle strength, and agility. Case studies were conducted on several families who routinely played traditional games with their children. Observations revealed that children actively involved in traditional games exhibited better motor skill development than those less engaged in such activities. This article also highlights that parental involvement in traditional games not only strengthens family bonds but also creates a supportive environment for children’s motor skill development. This involvement includes active parental roles guiding and participating in the games, helping children understand the rules and enhancing their social skills. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of traditional games within families as a tool for developing children’s motor skills. Hopefully, these findings will encourage families and educators to integrate traditional games into children’s daily activities as part of an effective motor development strategy. Further research is recommended to explore various aspects of traditional games and their impact on child development in different contexts.

Abstract

Lullabies are a phenomenon that is both local and universal across the globe. Despite their deep local roots, lullabies exist in nearly all cultures worldwide. The Minangkabau society in West Sumatra, Indonesia, have a traditional lullaby practice known as manjujai. However, this tradition is gradually eroding and beginning to fade due to the influence of technology and modernization. Beyond its primary role as a lullaby to lull children to sleep, manjujai also functions as a medium for conveying messages, especially cultural and religious values, intended to be embedded in children’s minds. This study aims to describe, reveal, and analyze the meanings and functions of manjujai as a cultural expression of the Minangkabau community, while connecting its universal values to lullabies in other cultures worldwide. This study employs a qualitative descriptive methodology, with data collected through an analysis of manjujai texts. The findings reveal that manjujai texts serve three social functions: (1) expressing feelings, thoughts, and life attitudes; (2) teaching cultural values through advice, messages, and hopes; (3) presenting linguistic beauty, comfort, tranquility, and well-being for the listening child, The shared essence of lullabies worldwide lies in their expressions of love, gentleness, and care. Many lullabies possess a peaceful, hyponic quality. Fatigue, the darkening night, difficulties in falling asleep, and the act of sleeping itself are universal elements that inspire the melodic and lyrical threads of lullabies worldwide.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the concept of gotong royong (mutual cooperation) in parenting practices in Cireundeu Traditional Village, Indonesia, which is an integral part of local culture. Through a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected via observations and interviews with local community members. The findings reveal that gotong royong in parenting involves not only parents but also extended family members and the community, all of whom play crucial roles in supporting children's development. Ethical and moral values are instilled from an early age, and cooperative parenting is expected to broaden children's horizons and improve their self-confidence in social interactions. This research underscores the importance of preserving traditional parenting practices amidst globalization’s challenges and encourages communities to pass down local wisdom in parenting. These findings contribute to the understanding and developing parenting knowledge rooted in Indonesia’s cultural values.
