HAPPY JACK & MERRY Metal Jacks Game with Ball Classic and Pick Up Sticks,12 Metal Jax and 2 Sizes of Bouncy Red Ball with Bag for Family Games Night

I ordered these games to include them in a lesson for my 3rd graders to show them what games were like in my day. They loved them! They are their favorite games to play on days when we have inside recess.

Grandkids loved the 2 games in one container. The Jacks are the small size of the original Jacks and come in fun gold and silver, the balls are the perfect size--one for adult, one for kids. Pick up sticks included in package are a fun game for ages 6 and up. With both Jacks in a bag and pick up sticks inside a sturdy rope- handled cylinder, travelling with the kit is ideal. Feel confident in this very affordable purchase that provides opportunities for all ages to have lots of fun together .

The container is so nice all you need is some ribbon and a tag to give as a gift. Old fashioned jacks and ball plus pick up sticks game. Comes with instructions for playing, which was great for the pick up sticks because I had forgotten how to play. My 4yr old grandson loves it!

I thought that the pickup sticks weren't included but they were! I missed them and when I went back to check I realized they were in the container that I had not opened. I guess when I saw the container I assumed only the jacks would be in there because the front of the container shows Jacks and Balls but does not show picture of pickup sticks and says nothing about pickup sticks so I assumed they weren't sent. Once I took off the wrapping and opened the container I saw that the pickup sticks were in there after all.

I purchased this item because I wanted to share my childhood fun time memories with my 5 year old granddaughter. She loves playing these with her Nana.

Must set record straight. My original review was submitted without all the facts. The jacks that I thought were missing from my order were, in fact, liberated from the original package for covert play by Grandchildren. The replacement arrived the very next day; I will not be returning my original item but keeping both, since these items are obviously worth risking “time out” (at the very least) to play with on the sly.With this new intelligence coming to light, I now give a 5 Star rating for the products, the Seller and Amazon.Gotta love the Grandkids’ team work and initiative—also, the teaching opportunity for honesty, trust, love and communication. I learn, the Grandkids learn and we are all wiser and better for it.😇

Brings back memories from years ago.

Loved the package. Jacks are cheaply manufactured and could be smaller. Pick up sticks are wooden which I loved, but would have liked them longer. All in all I will enjoy playing with my grand niece, games I loved when I was her age.
