Only a few inexpensive supplies are needed:
  • 10 pennies
  • 1 paper plate
  • pencil and paper
Players: 2


7 + 3 = 10  or  10 -7 = 3


Directions
  • Player 1 turns a paper plate upside down. He/she 'hides' some of the 10 pennies under the plate and puts the remainder of the pennies on top of the plate.
  • Player 2 counts the pennies on top of the plate and has to calculate the number of pennies under the plate. If correct Player 2 gets one point.
  • Then the players reverse rolls. Player 2 'hides' some of the pennies under the plate and puts the remainder of pennies on top of the plate. Player 1 has to calculate the number of pennies under the plate. If correct Player 1 gets one point.
  • Players continue taking turns and tallying their points.
  • The first player to get 10 points is the winner.
