RING THE STICK

 5in95_LiteBlueRingStick

RING THE STICK - A hoop of any size was tied to a length of rawhide or sinew and attached to a stick. The hoop was swung upward and as it came down, the player tried to put the end of the stick through the hoop. The ring had to start from a position flat on the ground before being thrown up into the air. In competition with each other, the players took turns and the player getting the most rings out of an agreed number of turns was the winner. Generally the hoop size was made according to the age of the players with a large hoop made for the youngest and a smaller hoop and longer stick made for older children and adults. This was mainly a social game played for fun but develops coordination and motor skills.

Each game comes in a bag with two Stick and Rings. The Stick and Ring are sized according to age and ability. Designate ages 2-5, 6-11 or 12 thru adult.

Sticks are hand carved decorated with leather, sinew, beads. Bags are fleece.
