This is a simple guessing game for which you just need two kids! Great for passing the odd waiting moment or car journey.
Age: Any
The children face each other and count to 3. On "3" they put out one hand - either as a fist or with 1, 2 or 3 fingers extended, shouting out at the same time a number between 1 and 6.
Add up the number of fingers extended. If a child guessed the exact number of fingers shown they score 2 points. If they guessed nearest the number of fingers shown, they score 1 point. If there is a tie, no points are scored. The first to a given number or points - perhaps 5 or 10 - wins.
For older children, or larger number of children, try Throwing Fists
