Jackstones is just another word for jacks. It’s been played by little girls forever and is even depicted on jars from ancient Greece.
Before rubber balls, pebbles were thrown in the air (or even small animal bones) with the intent to gather as many stones as possible before the stone is caught. Game on! Original Painting by Edward Simmons (1883) |
