Slå Katten ur Tunnan (Knock the Cat Out of the Barrel)

Fill the barrel with candy and small treats, then hang it at chest height.

Blindfold each player in turn and spin them gently before handing them the bat.

The player swings at the barrel, trying to knock its panels loose and spill the contents.

Once the barrel breaks open, everyone gathers the scattered treats.

The player whose swing breaks the final panel is crowned king or queen of the game and often wears a small paper crown for the rest of the party.
