Candy Cane Pick-Up-Sticks

candycanes.jpgMaterials
Candy canes, wrapped or unwrapped, stacked into a pile. You can use some candy canes of a different color and give them a higher point value. Traditionally, there are Blue Sticks - 50 Points, Green Sticks - 40 Points, Red Sticks - 25 Points, Yellow Sticks - 10 Points. Change this according to the frequency of colors and rarity for your candy canes.

Activity
Played like traditional pick-up-sticks, the objective is to remove one candy cane from the pile without disturbing the remaining candy canes. Use a small stick such as a kebab skewer or chopstick as a tool in picking up the candy canes. The first player picks up candy canes, one at a time, until he causes any other candy cane to move besides the one he is attempting to pick up. The other team then gets its chance to do the same.

Read about the significance of the Candy Cane to the Birth of Christ in the "Legend of the Candy Cane"
