Game instructions:

The players use a wooden pin (also called “mölkky”) to try and knock over wooden pins (also called “skittles”) of almost similar dimensions with the throwing pin, which are marked with numbers from 1 to 12. The pins are initially placed in a tight group in an upright position 3–4 metres away from the throwing place

Knocking over one pin scores the amount of points marked on the pin. Knocking 2 or more pins scores the amount of pins knocked over (e.g. 3 pins score 3 points). A pin does not count if it is leaning on the mölkky or one of the numbered pins (they have to be parallel to the ground to count). After each throw, the pins are lifted up again in the exact location where they landed. The first one to reach exactly 50 points wins the game. Scoring more than 50 will be penalised by setting the player’s score back to 25 points. A player will be eliminated from the game if they miss all of the target pins three times in a row. more HERE

Reblogged from Childcareland: Shelley writes: I purchased river rocks and put a piece of masking tape around the middle of each rock. The next step was to paint the ends of the rocks. I painted the rocks with different color ends as well as with the same color ends which created a variety of ways children could match the colors. After the paint was dry I carefully removed the masking tape…. Click HERE for more and a video

DIY Glitter Tattoos

You’ll need:
Contact paper
Scissors
Fine glitter (the finer the better)
Eyelash glue (can be found at the drug store. You MUST get the clear latex kind. It’s in a tube. NOT the clear glue in the bottle.) You can also use Elmer’s but it will likely rub off quickly. Eyelash glue dries in seconds. Also, I suspect rubber cement might work better than Elmer’s but I haven’t tried it.
