Equipment: Spoons and a pack of cards
All players sit in a circle with all the spoons in the middle. It's important that there's one less spoon than there are players, and one spoon is taken out the pile whenever someone is out.
The aim of the game is to get 4 cards of the same number and to grab a spoon.
The dealer deals out 4 cards to each player, and puts the rest of the cards in a pile facing down next to themselves. The dealer picks up a card from the pile, decides whether they want it, and put either the new card or one of their old cards face down infront of the next player, who then picks up the card and decides whether they want it. Players cannot keep more than 4 cards. When a player has 4 cards with the same number, they grab a spoon from the pile, at which point the rest of the players also start grabbing spoons. The player left without a spoon is out. Spoons is more fun when it's played fast.
Extreme Spoons
As above, except the spoons are scattered around the room, or in another room altogether.
