Thread: Looking for games played around the world

Tweet

I am leader of my local Cub Scout group, and we are currently learning about 5 different countries around the world for our "Blue and Gold" banquet. I am looking for ideas for the banquet and maybe some games the boys (ages 6-12) can play from different countries. The five countries we are studying are China, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Mexico. Any feedback will be appreciated.

Sissy! Remember the chopstick game? having to use chop sticks to pick up small candies? Use peanuts. This will go well with China or Japan game theme.
