Description:
Classic Cats Cradle Game A fantastic classic retro toy that has been loved by children (and adults) from all over the world! How to Play The game begins with the first player wrapping a loop of string around the hand (around the fingers or wrists) and taking one side of the string and circling the hands again. Then this player performs the last two moves of Opening A: taking the string which runs on the inside of the left arm onto the first finger of their right hand, then, reaching through the triangle created, the loop on the inside of the right hand is taken onto the first finger of the left hand). The aim of the game is to make a set of figures including the \"cat's cradle\". This is created by two sets of crossed string between both hands. A second player grasps each cross horizontally using the thumb and first fingers, pulls these outwards, down under the line which runs below the crosses from the first players wrists, and back up. The first player lets go of the figure and the second player stretches it open by bringing apart the thumbs and fingers. This figure is the \"diamonds\". A series of other alterations produce more figures, some of which lead back to the diamonds while some are dead ends and cannot be transformed. (Some say that \"diamonds\" is the cat's cradle from the game title, while others insist it's only the game title, and not any figures.)
Review:
3.0 out of 5 stars not elastic
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I was expecting it to be like the one that I had as a kid that was elastic. This one was not.
Brought for Christmas

Parece resustente aunque he dado muy poco uso
A mí me encanta pero no le engancha a mi hija de 6 años ya que no consigo explicarselo pese a las instrucciones. Aparentemente resistente aunque no deja de ser un simple cordón
Jeu facile
J'ai appris à mon fils que ne connaissait pas...------- --------- ------- --------- ------- --------- ------- --------- ------- --------- ------- ---------
String game
Good gift for a child.
Going back to my childhood, cheap and cheerful but enjoyable.
Takes me back to my childhood, did not buy it for anybody else but me, I remembered the initial one before looking at the instructions. Like water off a ducks back, but have not heard of a couple of the newer ones.
