Bluffing Games Scat

( Bluffing, Physical Contest )

One player holds on his upturned palm a ruler a paper knife or a small thin strip of wood. The other player takes this quickly and tries to “scat” or hit the opponents palm with the ruler before he can withdraw his hand. The game will be made more interesting by feints on the part of the player who has to take the ruler he giving several appearances of taking it before really doing so. When a player succeeds in hitting his opponents hand with the ruler they change parts in the game. Count is kept of the unsuccessful hits the player winning who has the smallest score when the play ends.

This is one of the diversions useful for rainy day recesses in school or for pupils who congregate before a session opens.
