Hand Baseball
This is a game that goes way back
for me. I loved baseball and played it whenever I could. This hand
game of baseball came in handy while on camp-outs or whenever I got
bored. It is best played in pairs. Draw a baseball diamond on a
sheet of paper or in the dirt. Get five items to use as batter and
runners. Decide which player will go first. Each player will place
one hand behind their back and the two players verbally spell
"F-U-N."
On the letter "N," both players bring their hand forward with as
many fingers up as they wish (from 0 to 10). They total the number
of both hands and the result will be a hit or an out.
0 = single 1 =
Out
2 = single 3 =
Out
4 = Double 5 = Out
6 = Triple 7 = Home run
8 = Out 9 =
Single
10 = Double
Have the players move their
pebbles around the bases and make sure you keep track of the outs
and runs. I really love this game and I’m sure you will too!
