Bahay Bahayan
Bahay-bahayan in tagalog, balay-balay in bisya, which literally means"home simulation or pretending you have your own house and your co players as family members. Somebody will do the role play of a father, mother and children's.
We play this game together with my cousin I play the role of a mother and my eldest cousin was the father but when he was with his friend boy they'll team me up with him. Then I'll blush with no reason his kinda handsome and my cousin knows I've got a crush on him.
In this game, we should think what kind of house we will be having, what materials are we using. But it's always the way of a little child thinks so those will probably like blanket, cartoon and some pillows. If you have your own Luto lutoan or cooking set toy you can also put it inside your Bahay bahayan to pretend your really a mother who does cooking for her family. I often cook flowers and leaves and sometimes even rock. It's a lot of fun, even our stuff toys has a role they'll be the babies and we'll feed them and dressed them.
My baby loves playing this game she often made it her own but she's only turning 3 years old this May, good thing that his brothers help her doing her Bahay bahayan. We sometimes don't have pillows because she'll cry if we get those it from her. We're planning to buy her a play pen or house pen for her to enjoy the benefits of playing.

Online Games
Call of Duty (cod)
Call of Duty is a first-person shooter video some franchise published by Activision. It started out in 2003, it first focused on games set in World War II. The games were first developed by Infinity Ward, then also by Treyarch and Sledgehammer Games. Several spin-off and handheld games were made by other developers.

My niece was once addicted to this game and I asked him which was better Mobile legends or that one do you know what he said, he cannot choose because it's both worthy to play. The practice will train you how to shoot or target the enemy you can also choose what kind of gun are you going to used. To be honest I can't install this game because the memory is more bigger than Mobile legends and I'm not good in memorizing their maps. Good thing that it had infinite bullets so you can reload anytime you want. You'll die in the game but you'll resurrect immediately.
Closing Thoughts
It really has a difference between Mobile Legends and COD but many are alike playing online games. And because of the pandemic many of us lock as self on the house so we only have is our smartphones with us. But what I did is to find more ways to help myself to earn. And because of the traditional games that we have pass with our kids they still managed to enjoy even if the hardest went to our lives. Even we cant play outside we can still enjoy this because this kind of games requires family members such as your dearest siblings or parents. You can have your Bonding because of this and time is very important to all of us.
