Abstract :Traditional children`s games are among the works and arts accepted as a traditional heritage in the field of folklore. Children`s games are important works used to transfer the traditions, customs, understanding and culture of a nation to the next generation. They almost act as a bridge between two generations. In addition, these games have a great impact on children`s psychomotor, mental, linguistic and moral development. Therefore, traditional children`s games are considered as versatile works and they appear as works that should be evaluated in many respects. Based on these views, we studied traditional children`s games from Hakkâri region in this study. Data was collected on the basis of the interview method in three villages in Yüksekova, Çukurca and the Center, the study area of which is located within the borders of Hakkâri province today. The interview group is separated into three generations: old, young and children. Our main purpose in this study is to find the answers to these questions: What games were used to be played before? How many of these continued after a generation or two and what new games were added to them? In addition, a comparison is made between the three villages identified in terms of the names, quantity and style of play.
