Not a thing. I'm expecting my sister and her two kids plus my adult nephew and his wife..... The ten year old nephew wants to play cards, so we're going to be nice and play with him. He'd rather play chess but none of us play.

It's a game where you have to pop your "winks" into a cup or on top of your opponents "winks", using a "squidger".

There was a reference to it in one of the stories in the literature book and I took my game to school the next day. The kids loved it and on Monday one boy brought in the game his dad had bought for him. They played for weeks in the cafeteria.

 

[Bowlerpa]

O i have played that game before.

I had heard the word before but had no clue...
looks like it would be hard

they called the night before to ask if I was doing anything...
otherwise it would have just been me, pogo & a frozen pizza

It's a really old game. I'm always surprised to see that today's kids still like the simple games. Of course they discovered that it took a lot of skill to win.

I have seen college play it but there was a different idea on what you win.
