March 7: Chinese Checkers

This is the old Chinese Checkers game that I played when I was growing up. I rarely play it now. The object of the game is to get your marbles from one side to the other side. Some of the marbles have been lost over the years and replaced with other marbles. The marbles used to be stored in the red compartments between the points in the star. A lever is supposed to move the trays so the marbles do not fall out. The lever does not work anymore, so I store the marbles in a plastic bag.

I remember this game, too. I used to play it with the children when they were young.

I used to play that game also and haven't thought of it in ages. What a lovely photo it made.

@milaniet I might become a foster grandparent. I wonder if my foster grandchildren would like to play with this game.

@sangwann I remember playing this game with my son when he was younger.
