Ular Naga

Yaya' Noorhidayah (Likers of 80s90s Time Machine Facebook page from Indonesia) told us a story about her favorite ground game in her childhood.

 "Ular naga (games serpent dragon) adalah satu permainan berkelompok yg biasa dimainkan anak-anak Jakarta (Indonesia) diluar rumah diwaktu sore dan malam hari.
Tempat bermainnya di tanah lapang atau di halaman rumah yang agak luas. Pemainnya biasanya sekitar 5-10 orang, bisa juga lebih, anak-anak umur 5-10 tahun.
Di daerah sulawesi selatan kami menyebutnya toko-toko diang, sambil bermain kami menyanyikan lagu khusus permainan ini.
Did u play this games in your country? what about Europe, America, China or Middle East?"


Ular naga is one of outdoor group game that often played by Jakarta (Indonesian) children, in afternoon and in night times.
The game could be played in a playing ground or in a considerately wide lawn. The game involves five to ten members, or more, usually children between 5-10 years old.
In South Sulawesi (one province in Indonesia -red) we call it "Toko-toko Diang:, we have a special song to sing in this game.
Did you play this game in your country? Do you have similar one in Europe, America, China, or Middle East?
