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. Visit these sites to learn more:
