HOW TO PLAY
1

Draw a simple grid of squares on the ground, numbered from start to finish.

2

The first player tosses a flat stone into the first square, aiming to avoid the lines.

3

The player hops on one foot through the remaining squares, skipping over the square holding the stone.

4

On the return trip, the player bends down to retrieve the stone while still hopping on one foot.

5

Each successful round sends the stone into the next numbered square, and stepping on a line ends the turn.
