Marbles

Marbles are fun to play, and not too expensive. Don´t let anyone talk you into playing for keeps,though. That is gambling and just plain stupid. Remember, the kid who wants to play for keeps is really good or he wouldn´t offer. If you are really good, don´t play for keeps either. Taking another child´s marbles is a lot like stealing. If you make someone sad, you won´t have any fun. Also...their parents will probably get really mad. So, just play for fun.
