Card or Board Game Pick up Sticks
- Functions
- Board Game, Play with Equipment/Props and Quiet Play
While not a board game - pick up sticks is reasonably charaterized as one. Commercially available 'sticks' are collected into a bundle and dispersed by holding
them upright and then letting them go. The aim of each player is to pick up as many sticks as possible without touching/moving
any of the surrounding sticks. The child with the most sticks at the end of the game is the winner.
