Tumbang preso

Tumbang preso ("knock down the prisoner"), also known as tumbang lata ("knock down the can") or bato lata ("hit the can [with a stone]"), is a Filipino traditional children's game.

The game involves throwing a slipper at a can or bottle, which one player - the tayà - attempts to guard.

The game is usually played in backyards, parks, or streets when there is little traffic in an area.

The equipment needs an empty soda can or any kind of can or bottle, and a slipper for each player.

The objective is for the players to hit and knock down the can with the slipper, and for the tayà to put back the can inside a small circle a few meters away from the toe-line.
