Mancala

I avoided this game for years because I thought it was complicated - boy was I wrong!! It is easy to learn, but hard to master. Fun for kids and adults alike, and a great 5 to 10 minute game.
The description from the website:
The strategy game from Africa now can be played anywhere, anytime! For thousands of years, people have enjoyed playing a simple game of strategy called Mancala—an arithmetic challenge to capture the most pieces in your mancala bowl. Travel Mancala’s sturdy hinge and fastener make it perfect for travel. Features three sets of rules. Made from the non-endangered, plantation-grown wood of the raintree. The object is to collect the most beads in your large mancala bowls by sequentially dropping stones around the board.

I love the idea of getting kids hooked on wooden games. Couldn't be a better time for it.
