How to play

  1. Two players stand facing each other, then clap and jump together.
  2. As they land, each throws one foot forward.
  3. The leader scores on a matching foot or on a different one, depending on the rule; agree who leads before you start.

Safety

Always play these games with an adult watching, in a way that suits your child’s age and the surface underfoot. Keep games with small pieces (marbles, five stones, mangala) away from children under 3.
