5. HISTORY
Games and sports have been around for
thousands of years. The Egyptians' senet is the
earliest example of a board game and dates
back to 3000 B.C. The first traces of
competitive sports also go back to the
Egyptians around 2000 B.C. In an Egyptian
tomb at Beni Hasan, archeologists found

7. BENEFITS OF SPORTS AND
GAMES
A study reported in the "New England Journal of
Medicine" concluded that leisure activities, including
board games, were associated with a decreased risk of
dementia in senior citizens. Games have also long
been used to educate children, teaching things such as
taking turns, following rules and enhancing verbal
communication. Playing games together also
strengthens family and community ties, providing a
nonconfrontational opportunity to communicate and
build relationships between children, teens, parents
and the elderly.

11. Role of Technology
Technology plays an important part in modern sports.
With it being a necessary part of some sports (such as
motorsport), it is used in others to improve
performance.
Sports science is a widespread academic discipline, and
can be applied to areas including athlete performance,
such as the use of video analysis to fine-tune technique,
or to equipment, such as improved running
shoes or competitive swimwear.
In order to control the impact of technology on fair
play, governing bodies frequently have specific rules
that are set to control the impact of technical
advantage between participants.

World. Association Football is the most popular sport
in 320 National Associations (countries) out of the
total 345 National Associations on the planet. It has
more number of registered players than any other
sport in the world. The revenue generated by
Association Football is higher than any other sport in
the world. The Spectatorship for Association Football
is higher than any other sport in the world. The FIFA
World Cup is the most popular and the most followed

13. IMPORTANCE OF SPORTS
Sports is undoubtedly an activity that is fun to do ,
but it has many other positive effects on a
person’s life as well. The ideal of a good and
perfect life is to have a sound mind in a sound
body. This is recognized by all as the best means
of performing our duties. Body and mind should
work at their best, and they cannot do so unless
both are in good order. The limbs must be- supple,
active and obedient to the will. The best way to
keep the limbs fit is to exercise them in sports and
games of physical skill and strength.
15. CONCLUSION
We personally think that games for kids are the
best way for those interested in sport.
All the games that I have developed above are
activities that have much application to sport.
These games can serve as an introduction to
sport such as basketball, football and athletics.
A very positive aspect of using games in physical
education is that children are having fun.
So we think that games for kids are a great tool to
work in physical education
