Developing Children's Emotional Intelligence Through Traditional Bekel Games

Abstract

The game is played by girls between 7 and12 years of age. It requires a ball of bekel and bekel to be played. Backgammon is a traditional game that easily develops a child's emotional intelligence through social interaction, collaboration, and emotional management. This research method uses qualitative descriptive methods with content analysis techniques. This method is used to analyze the content of bekel games that are related to the development of emotional intelligence of children. As a result of research, several sources indicate that bekel games can improve children's problem-solving skills and develop emotional intelligence through emotional recognition, social interaction and problem solving. These games can also help children learn to cope with failure. Research suggests that bekel games can also help children learn to cope with failure. Research suggests that bekel games have the potential to develop a child's emotional intelligence. It is suggested that further research be carried out with a wider sample target to empirically test the relationship between emotional intelligence and bekel games.
