Knocking The Stick

Knocking The Stick

This is a traditional Chinese game, played outdoors by boys of all ages and needing nothing more than a few sticks and some dirt or reasonably flat ground.

Draw (or otherwise mark) two lines in the dirt, about 8 feet apart. Place a stick in the middle of the lines.

Now each child picks his own stick and takes turns trying to knock the stick over one of the lines.
