This project of traditional games introduces us to the wonderful

world of children, which is full of imagination and fantasy; to speak

of traditional games is to refer to those games that have endured in

their essence for a long time, undergoing few changes, passing from

generation to generation from grandparents to parents and from

parents to children.

Cultural identity refers to everything that indigenous peoples

represent, i.e., their culture, customs, traditions and other elements

that strengthen the cultural heritage rooted in modern societies. It is

been transmitted from generation to generation, largely through oral

tradition, where the family has played a very important role, because

it is the same that strengthens the identity of each individual, an

example of this is the role played by women and elders in this

process, through historical memory, customs and traditions,

educating and guiding children to continue preserving what they are,

all based on ethical and moral values that are an axis of culture and

tradition.

The 1991 Political Constitution of Colombia also recognizes a series

of rights of the indigenous communities, among them; the State

protects the ethnic and cultural diversity of the Colombian Nation

The peasant and indigenous community of the Yascual indigenous

reservation and corregimiento have been affected for many years by

different socioeconomic and cultural phenomena; among the main

ones we can mention the abandonment by the state; This has

generated poverty among its inhabitants, the difficult access to the

township and its villages due to the poor condition of the roads, its

territorial proximity to areas of illicit crops and the influence of

illegal groups, turned this region into one of the most forgotten of

the Municipality of Túquerres and the Department of Nariño.

All these problems have caused many children and young people to

to analyze the impact of traditional games as a pedagogical strategy

to strengthen cultural identity in the students of the fifth grade of the

Guanguezan Educational Center of the Yascual Indigenous

Reservation of Yascual.

Diagnosing, designing, and implementing strategies that affect the

Resguardo Indígena de Yascual Educational Center.

Since, within culture, the concept of identity is fundamental, in

studies of the

department of Nariño, (Rancich et al., 2013) states that: "The

unindianized indigenous people believed that their indigenous

ethnic groups as a fundamental right and, within this framework,

cultural identities also enjoy the category of right, derived from

Article 7 of the Political Constitution of Colombia.

Considering that culture is inherent to the human being and that it is

differentiated in a particular group, it creates in some way an identity

of that group, which could be called cultural identity, that understood

as the identification of an individual towards an ethnic group, which

supposes an affiliation to all its components, that is to say, to intrude

in that world that feels it as one's own. The vindication and

understanding of the knowledge and wisdom of the elders, such as

the concept of legal pluralism, that is, the possibility of the existence

of diverse legal orders in a State that is predominantly open to the

identity of cultures.

Ethno-education in Colombia is a process that has always depended

on outside governments, and that ended up involving the groups

recognized as ethnic groups; such is the case of the Indigenous, Afro-

Colombian, Raizal and Rom, in such a way that this process has

depended on laws and norms, both national and international, where

it is recognized that these ethnic groups exist, all of them point to the

fact that an education must be developed where their cultural identity

charge of the administration of education through the famous

concordat that the State signed with the Holy See. In this regard, the

administration of education was carried out by the González, (2013)

the administration of education was carried out by the Catholic

missions or, in other words, "contracted education" that was born

from the application of the Concordat that the Colombian State

signed with the Holy See. In such a way that education would

remain in function of the mandates of the Catholic Church, ignoring

the languages and religiosity of the indigenous people.

the game modifies learning environments, improving relationships

between students, with their peers, with their teacher, parents and

knowledge, projecting new ways of learning. In the Guanguezan

Educational Center they do not know their own customs and

ancestral traditions and a loss of cultural identity; taking into account

that the indigenous culture refers to a way of life with their respective

traditions and beliefs. In the same way that the life of a people is a

dynamic process, that is to say, changing, where the present is a

product of past events and the future depends on what we build now.

game continues to play a very important role in the integral

development of infants, it is a means of formation for adolescents, it

is a factor of union between young people and adults; it is a memory

for the elderly, it is a strength inside and outside the classroom, since

through it rules are established, aptitudes and attitudes are valued,

work in a group is encouraged, companionship, sociability,

coexistence and the formation of new knowledge is promoted.

Adopting the premise that traditional games are a typology of motor

play, it is assumed that these games have the characteristics of a

motor game, therefore, in this section we will address the

The rules and conditions of the game are variable to adapt to the

environment and specific circumstances.

The variability of the rules and the integration in the environment

gives the participants the possibility to create multiple variants.

The popular game is not just a game. The aspects surrounding the

game: the formation of the teams, the place of play, the way of

casting lots takes on real importance.

The oral transmission of these games provides them with

characteristic features; to indicate them in writing would be to

detract from their identity.

world. It is a means of affective-evolutionary expression, which

makes it a very useful projective technique for psychologists and

educators, especially when it comes to understanding the problems

affecting the child.

Play provides the appropriate context in which the basic educational

needs of children's learning can be met. It can and should be

considered as a mediating instrument given a series of conditions

that facilitate learning. Its motivating character stimulates the child

and facilitates his or her participation in activities that may be

unattractive to him or her, becoming the alternative to those

activities that are not very stimulating or routine.

constitutes one of the essential educational activities, it is worth

highlighting the importance that play has reached in the school

environment, due to the fact that it is catalogued as a tool that brings

students closer to knowledge. With reference to this, many

contributions have been made about the concept, its influence and its

relationship with the human being and learning. Among these

postulates Romo-Fernández et al., (2013) It contributes to the child's

ability to better understand the world that surrounds him and thus

discover the notions that will favor future learning. For Gallo,

(2017) In effect, the game offers the teacher a method of renewing

of the human being it is necessary to carry out activities that facilitate

the development of skills and abilities in the individual from

childhood to adulthood with a constant practice of traditional games

native to the region.

Play is an exercise of functions necessary for adult life, because it

contributes to the development of functions and capacities that

prepare the child to be able to carry out the activities he/she will

perform when he/she grows up.

Play is not only useful as bodily exercise, as recreation of the mind,

as a cooperative element in social disciplines, but also to channel the

tendencies of instinct, since this is what makes the child choose,

he becomes an adult, as well as to his self-affirmation as a person.

That is why among the traditional activities of the Indigenous

Community of the Yascual Resguardo are the Cucunuba game,

hopscotch, enchanted pots, the cuspe, the wheel, the quebrada de

ollas, the sapo, the balls or marbles, the encostalados, jumping rope,

the water carts and the spinning top.
