PLAY IDEA OF THE DAY
Spoons
SUITABLE FOR AGES 5+
You need as many sets of cards (e.g. 4 kings, 4 aces etc) as there are players. These need to be shuffled and then dealt out evenly to all players. The aim of the game is get a set of four or NOT be the last to pick up their spoon. Players simultaneously choose one card from their hands, pass that card to the opponent on their left, and pick up the card they've received from the opponent on their right. Each player can never have more than four cards in his hand, so it's illegal for a player to pick up a new card before passing one to the left. When a player collects four of a kind, they must subtly pick up a spoon. Once one player has done this, regardless of the cards you have in your hand you, every other player must grab a spoon. The last player to grab a spoon loses and is out for the remainder of the game.
