WEDNESDAY - Games with a Twist

So, you think you cleaned up with checkers and battleship yesterday?  Feeling like taking on the world?  Brace yourself.

Here are some games kids in other parts of the world play.

IN THE COMMUNITY ROOM:
 
  • Chen Qiu Rong -- Here's an interesting twist on jumping rope from China.  Read about it here.
  • Hamesh Avanim (Five Stones) -- This Israeli game is like jacks, but with a real twist.
IN THE COMPUTER LAB:
  Japanese Baseball -- Ever wonder if Japanese ball-playing cats meow in another language?
  Kidz Area -- Here's a whole web page full of wild and crazy games.
  Golden Arrow -- Maybe a little practice, and you'll be able to get that meerkat from Monday a decent meal, after all.
Welcome to the first week of the Summer 2007 Kaleidoscope Youth Program.

Since summer is supposed to be about having fun, we'll explore new and old games.  Some you've heard of, some are even older than your parents, and some will just tickle your brain cells.

Thanks for joining us!
