You take two rows of quarters or other similar sized objects and put one in front of each person. You then have a race to see who can flip them over the fastest. Whe the child gets good at it go down to nickles, then penniess and finally dimes. My son really enjoyed the game and I did see an improvemnt in his fine motor skills. Name: Email: Subject
