Playing Grandma's Games

Have you ever wondered how to play faro, frakle or goose? What about Queen's Guard, Fox & Geese, or Bottecelli? Have you forgotten the rules to Mubblety-Peg, Jackstraws or Snakes & Ladders? You'll find those and many more historical games for adults and children in this fun-filled volume. Grandma's games are as enjoyable today as they were hundreds of years ago. Karen Arnold has also included information on the history and rules of play for board, dice, card dice, and Indian games for children - both indoors and outdoors. There is also a wonderful list of suppliers, as well as a complete bibliography and index.
