Mancala

Mancala is one of the worldƒ??s oldest and best-loved games. Players take turns scooping up the special marbles and counting them out one at a time into the pockets on the board. When they drop a marble into an empty pocket on their side of the board they capture all the stones in the opposite pocket. It sounds like a simple marble game, but itƒ??s got plenty of strategy and it reinforces STEM skills such as counting and strategic planning. The winner is the player who collects all of the marbles. This folding Mancala includes a hinged wooden playing board, 48 marbles, and complete instructions.
