Korea: Mek Konk Wherever children gather, they are likely to find a game to play. In Korea, that game just might be “Mek Konk.” The game starts with a hunt for pebbles and then, with pockets
full, children take turns challenging the other players to accurately guess the number of pebbles held in a hand. To guess one, Korean children would say “hana.” For two, “dool” and three, “set.” Number of players: Six to 12, ages 4 and up Materials: Pebbles or dry beans — each player needs three for every player in the game (If six kids are playing, each player starts with 18 pebbles.) The Game: Players place the pebbles in their pockets and line up. The first player in line starts by challenging the second player. He secretly places a number of pebbles in one hand, then holds both of his hands out. The second player must guess which hand holds the pebbles. If she is correct, she wins the pebbles. If she’s wrong, she gives the challenger as many pebbles as he had hidden. The challenger continues down the line until he reaches the end, and then the player originally in second place steps in as challenger. When everyone has had a turn being the challenger, the player with the most pebbles wins. Bonus: Improved reasoning and math skills as kids note how many pebbles their opponents are exchanging
