that is so fun! I'm not sure we're quite coordinated enough to do that yet, but it's worth remembering for sure! I loved playing that game. I want to be one of the cool parents who teaches her kids the games before they learn them somewhere else...

I remember playing this at FBC, Eastland. Loved it! And you're right, they are doing it exactly right in the video.

Hey Christine,

I've seen this game, but never actually learned it before. I'm kind of lacking in the rhythm department, but after practicing for the last hour (thanks for the video, LOL)... I think I've got it!

I know what I'll be teaching the kids after dinner tonight. heehehe

No, Summer, I have lived in Texas MOST of my life and I have never heard of it either....

The boys LOVED it and were laughing as the boys started messing up and chunking cups at each other. LOL We will have to try this. :)

Summer, so far I've found no other Blackwellites that have done it - maybe it's more of a Texas thing.

Cammie, I'm sure we weren't annoying AT ALL - with those clanky cups on the Veda Hodge tables ... and all that linoleum and cinder block to stifle the noise. :)

I never did this one...I do remember a cup passing game "Riki Tiki Bear" that we did at camp.

No videos with exactly the same tune I learned, but this will give you an idea of how to play and mix up the passing...+
