10 Great Group Games

Rock-paper-scissors is a well-known kid's game in the U.S., but did you know it's popular in Japan, too? To play in Japanese, all you have to do is say "jan-ken-pon" instead of "rock-paper-scissors." It's easy as pie to learn, and kids get to learn a little Japanese and work their hand muscles while they play.
