tumbang preso

Tumbang preso, a Filipino children's game, involves players attempting to knock down a can with a slipper while a "guard" (tayà) tries to catch them. Here are five key rules: 1) A can is placed in a designated area, and the guard is chosen by tossing slippers as close to a line as possible, with the farthest slipper determining the guard. 2) Players must not cross the throwing line when throwing their slippers at the can. 3) If a player knocks down the can, they can retrieve their slipper, but the guard can tag them while they are retrieving their slipper, making them the new guard. 4) The guard must quickly reset the can within a designated area after it's knocked down. 5) If a player fails to retrieve their slipper before being tagged, they become the new guard.
