Dexterity games are found in every culture and tradition.
It's a way of teaching your brain and hands to work as a team.

These games still appeal. Maybe even understand the math behind the game. But more than that, just play them and enjoy. Sometimes learning is just that much fun. Just build and play.

Choose among four different kinds of games – to play by yourself or with/against a partner/competitor.

Beneath the joy of Towers of Hanoi is an algorithm (a mathematical formula) which you don't need to know to play, but if you do know it, you can predict how many moves it would take to solve it for any number of discs you were playing with. You would be beginning to understand Code.

Rebound is about feedback in your fingers and just how hard you have to flick the puck to land where you want to land.

Finger Twister is all about the luck of the spin and your finger flexibility.

Pigs in Clover, a game from over a century ago written about by Mark Twain when it was all the rage.

Dragons are made of parts borrowed from birds, reptiles, mammals and imagination. Assemble your own: from the old Norse traditions that Hiccup so carefully described. Or from the now 15 year-old Pokemon traditions of Japan. Make your dragon match your favorite or look like a beast no one else has ever seen.

Build a Unicorn, Dragon, or Penguin with a hole in the middle. Why the hole? Watch the egg tumble in his tummy when he rolls along. Or a Cement Truck!
A truly satisfying toy for absolutely everyone.

Please choose one of the following for your party:
Unicorn
Dragon
Penguin
Truck

Where else would you keep your gold? (well, pennies...)
