Alright, this week's post is going back to card games! I included this game because of how easily it can be set up anywhere. Spoons can get very competitive, I speak from experience, but it also adds fun and excitement to any meet up. Just remember not to flip any tables (that's another story). Below is the way we play Spoons where everyone gets only one life. The original version gives everyone 6 lives by spelling out S P O O N S. Once they spelled it, they are eliminated. How to PlaySuggested # of Players: 2-10 Set Up 1) Everyone gathers around a table or in a circle. 2) Get one less spoon than the total number of people playing and a deck of cards. For example, if you have 5 people, you would use 4 spoons. Place the spoons in the middle where everyone can reach them. 3) Deal out 4 cards to everyone and leave the rest of the deck next to a designated starting player. Each Round
The goal is to get 4 of a kind of any card. Once someone has 4 of a kind, they and everyone can allowed to grab a spoon. Similar to musical chairs*, you move on to the next round if you have a spoon. Otherwise, you are eliminated. If anyone grabs a spoon before someone gets a 4 of a kind, they are eliminated. The game ends when there is one person left.

Note: Spoons makes a great tournament game
