Kernels

Draw or mark out a playing circle around 1 step across in diameter on the ground and place your kernels, pebbles or marbles within the circle.

Sitting inside or just outside of the circle the player takes one kernel, tosses it into the air and tries to catch it with the same hand. If the player can achieve this they can move onto the below sequence of difficulty levels.

Level 1. Toss the first kernel into the air, try to pick up another one on the ground and then catch the first kernel. Do this until all the kernels are picked up, if one is dropped you start from the beginning again.

Level 2. Toss a kernel into the air, pick up two, and catch the kernel. Repeat till all kernels are picked up.

Level 3. Toss a kernel into the air, pick up three, and catch the kernel. Repeat till all kernels are picked up.

Level 4. Place the five kernels in the palm of your hand, toss them all into the air at the same time and try to catch them either with your other hand or with the back of same hand that tossed them all up.
