3,2,1... throw and hit! Who doesn't know this game? ... it is not only popular at fairs, but can also be a hit at children's birthday parties and other celebrations. The can throwing game is also fun as a gift idea or as a change in the dull season. Individually with selected papers, the game is easy to make.

This is how you design the great game:
Cut the desired paper with the contour cutter. In our example, we chose winter motifs, but this game is also great for children's birthday parties with colourful papers, as well as papers with dinosaurs, butterflies, fairies and much more. Glue the cut papers around the tins using craft glue.

Punch out circles with the circle punch and glue them to the top and bottom of the tins using craft glue.

Use the oval hole punch to punch the papers that will be used for the scores. Label the ovals with a score and stick them to the tins with craft glue.

Decorate with stickers. Fill the jute bags with decorative gravel and seal.

Rules of the game:

The players must try to clear all the cans as far as possible. To do this, they must not cross a predefined line. Each player has three attempts per round to clear the cans with the jute bag. Each can has different points, which are added up at the end, e.g. after three rounds. The upper cans, which are easier to throw, should have fewer points than the lower ones. Whoever has the most points wins the can toss. If desired, a small prize can be offered at children's birthday parties and other celebrations.

The throwing line should be about one metre for younger children. Older girls and boys can also manage a greater distance of about 3 metres. It is best to play a practice round before the game starts so that it is not frustrating later when the children do not manage to clear the can tower.
