Mi Experiencia con Los Juguetes de mi Infancia

It should be noted that today's toys for children are very different from those I used in my childhood, since at that time when I was in school we did not have access to a computer for studying, much less for playing, because they were very expensive. Also, because there were five siblings studying at home, and with me, six, imagine buying six toys for each one.

Sin embargo, recuerdo que los fines de semana iba a casa de un primo con mis hermanos mayores, y tenían un juego llamado Mario Bros, siempre lo veían jugando pero nunca tuve la oportunidad de jugar con este juego. Recuerdo que en la escuela nos explicaban los juegos tradicionales y no enseñaron a realizar nosotros mismos los juguetes con materiales reciclado, uno de los que hice fue La Perinola, en casa había potes de latas, un pequeño palo, y un pabilo, de esta forma tenía mi Perinola, cuyo juego consistía en meter el palo dentro de la lata.

However, I remember that on weekends I would go to my cousin's house with my older brothers, and they had a game called Mario Bros. I always saw them playing it, but I never had the opportunity to play it myself. I remember that at school they taught us about traditional games and showed us how to make our own toys out of recycled materials. One of the toys I made was La Perinola. At home, I had some tin cans, a small stick, and a wick, so I made my own Perinola, which was a game where you had to put the stick inside the can.

Asimismo, el segundo de los juguetes que realicé en casa es el llamado Yoyo, con una chapa de refresco o de cerveza, que eran como de aluminio, se le abría un círculo con un clavo y dentro de este se introducía un pabilo, para tener listo mi Yoyo para jugar. Otro de los juguetes que me gustó mucho era los papagayos, con una varilla de bambú, se realizaba un pequeño arco, una varilla, la cual se pegaba en un hoja de periódico de forma como triangular y por último se hacía un frenillo con pabilo en la parte posterior del papagayo para después llevarlo a volar en la montaña cerca de mi casa.

The second toy I made at home was called a yo-yo. I used a soda or beer can tab, which was made of aluminum, and used a nail to punch a hole in it. I then inserted a string into the hole, and my yo-yo was ready to play with. Another toy I really liked was kites. We made a small bow with a bamboo stick, which we stuck into a triangular piece of newspaper, and finally we made a brake with a wick at the back of the kite so we could fly it in the mountains near my house.

Para finalizar, estos tipo de juguetes, son juegos tradicionales de nuestra cultura, que hoy en día se han perdido debido a los avances tecnológicos, porque los niños en ves de construir sus propios juguetes, los padres los compran y también utilizan un teléfono celular para jugar, el cual lo hace sedentarios y no se mantienen activos, como era antes en nuestra infancia, la cual se disfrutaba de forma divertida y muy sano.

Finally, these types of toys are traditional games from our culture that have been lost today due to technological advances. Instead of building their own toys, children now have their parents buy them toys and use cell phones to play, which makes them sedentary and prevents them from being active, as we were in our childhood, which was enjoyed in a fun and very healthy way.
