Penny Pitching

(Push a star to rate!)

If your aim is good, you can win a little money playing this traditional game.

Number of participants: 3-10
For:
Intensity level: Low
Preparations: None or not specified.
Equipment: lots of pennies
 

Players stand three feet (one meter) from a wall and take turns tossing pennies. The player whose coin comes closest to the wall wins all the pennies that have been thrown. The penny may hit the wall and bounce off, or roll to the wall, or be knocked closer to the wall by another player’s throw.  Once all players become proficient at the original distance, have them take a big step back and try again from a longer distance. Continue until all of the pennies have been won.
