#376: Ice Cube Curling

Let's go curling--at the table!


On a smooth surface, mark a circle. (You might want to lay smooth plastic over a table and draw your circle on the plastic.) Then, take ice cubes and slide them across the surface. To get points, you need to make your ice cube stop inside the circle, or touching the circle in some way.

Take turns with the other players.


Make this a family activity: Is there anyone who can make the ice cube stop in the very middle of the circle?

This activity promotes motor skills (and cold fingers!).
