Cultural Games
In Tanzania, every community has its own traditional games.
Different societies play games depending on the place, time and
type of traditions. The Zaramo of the coast and the Zanaki of
Mara play ‘Bao’. Other societies include the Maasai, the Gogo,
the Kurya, and the Chagga. They play games such as object
targeting and spear throwing.
The aims of these games include building strength and developing
thinking ability. Such games also help in making decisions
quickly . Additionally, they help in developing one’s ability to
defend himself/herself.
