This is a game which is good to play with someone else but you can challenge yourself as well if you play it alone. It is a very old game that has been around since at least Roman times. I used to play it a lot when I was little and in our school it was called snobs. You can buy Jacks which are made of metal to play this with or find five dice or just five small evenly sized pebbles.
The video below will show you one way of how to play but there are many, many different versions and rules.
I used to be pretty good at this game. If you practice a lot you can challenge me to a match when we get back to school.
Happy playing

Here is another old game that's fun to play and all you need is some string or wool.
