Players: 2-4
Number of Cards: Number cards from 1-12 (x4) / 4 Jokers. Also Required: Possibly a bell.
Educational Value: Practices deconstructing the numbers 1-10.
Goal: The player with the most cards at the end of the game is the winner.
Preparation: The cards are shuffled and the entire deck placed in the center of the table. A bell may also be added to the table.
How to Play: A player draws a card from the deck in the center of the table and reads it aloud. The next player does the same. This continues until a player finds two sequential cards which total 10. Jokers are worth 0.
When a player believes he can make 10, he knocks on the table or rings the bell and says the sum aloud. If he is correct, he takes all the up-turned cards.
This cycle continues until no more combinations which make 10 are possible.
