Jacks

Rediscover the simple pleasures of traditional games.

This timeless game of skill and dexterity is a brilliant way to challenge yourself, enjoy a little friendly competition and introduce a new generation to a much-loved playground classic.

The aim is simple: bounce one of the swirly balls and see how many jacks you can pick up before catching it again! Start with one and gradually increase the challenge as your confidence and coordination improve. Play alone to practise your skills or challenge family and friends to see who can collect them all first.

The set includes ten metal jacks, five gold and five silver, two swirly rubber bouncy balls and a handy printed cotton storage bag. Full instructions are included, so it's easy to get started.
