Description

This traditional jacks game comes packed in its own cream cotton drawstring bag, ready for a quick round wherever you happen to be. Inside are two rubber balls swirled with bright stripes of pink, blue, green, yellow and purple, along with a handful of knobbed metal jacks, some in a warm gold tone and some in a bright silver tone. The bag is printed with the words Traditional Jacks in teal lettering beneath a red drawing of jacks and balls, and it closes with a twisted turquoise cord. Packed up, the whole game measures 10.7cm long, 8cm wide and 2.9cm high.

Jacks is a game of quick hands and a steady eye: toss the ball up, scoop up jacks while it bounces once, then catch it before it bounces again, picking up more with every round. It plays well on a kitchen table, a smooth floor or a flat patch of ground outside, and because the bag is so small it slips easily into a school bag, a handbag or a coat pocket for car journeys, rainy afternoons and days out. We like it as a gentle break from screens, a game that is simple to pick up and rewarding to get better at, whether you are learning it for the first time or remembering how it goes.

The bag is 100% cotton, the balls are synthetic rubber and the jacks are metal. When the game is over, everything tips back into the bag and the cord pulls it closed, so the small pieces stay together between games. To keep the set looking its best, wipe the balls and jacks with a damp cloth and dry them well, and spot clean the bag gently rather than soaking it. Wrapped on its own or tucked alongside a book, it makes a small, thoughtful gift that brings an old favourite back to the table.
