It was passed from generation to generation and has become popular even in other countries. CHINESE GARTER

3. How to play Chinese Garter A CLASSIC GAME WITH A FILIPINO TWIST You must form two teams to play. Each team has two positions in the game “mother” and “baby”. If the baby fails to jump at a certain level, the Mother can still save her team. But if the mother failed, the other team's turn.

4. Levels Level 1 – The garter is being held by the posts closer to the ground. Level 2 – Knee-high Level 3 – Around the height of their hips Level 4 – Waist high Level 5 – Chest high Level 6 – Shoulder high Level 7 – Above the ear high Level 8 – At the tip of the head Level 9 – A few inches above the head Level 10 –as high as a person raising his/her arms high on tip toes (Level 7- can do tumbling/cartwheel)

5. Rules Players are divided into two or more teams. During the game, two members of the “it” team shall serve as “game posts” as they stand opposite each other and hold each end of the garter. The objective of the game then is to be able to successfully jump over the garter as it is gradually held higher by the game posts.

6. Rules Once a jumper fails to go over a particular level, he/she will not be allowed to jump to the next level and only the players who successfully jump the level move on to the next. Then, one member of the team needs to make up the missed jumps of the other players (per level). The process continues up to the highest or last level. If no one from the jumpers successfully jumps over the highest level, they switch roles with the “It” group and the game starts a new one.

7. Rules If it is your team's turn again, (and the other team didn’t reach the last level) you’ll continue on the level/round where you stopped. (Until you reach the last level or until the time is up) The game usually ends after the highest jump (in the last round). However, some would continue playing the game backwards. Instead of raising the garter higher, the posts shall hold the garter back to its lower position. The game now has a new objective: to be able to go under the garter by bending backwards (limbo rock). The game continues this way until the player reaches back to the lowest level.

8. Rules The game can also end if there is a time limit. The team who is on the farthest round and level wins. Rounds - 1 time (jump) - 2 times (jump) - Backwards (The game now has a new objective: to be able to go under the garter by bending backwards.)
