Lots of plastic cups A marble

This is a great game that you can make from a load of empty plastic cups!

This cup is a tornado and like a genuine tornado, it can pick stuff up in its path...

...and deposit it as it spins down and loses energy!

Your task is to use your skill to keep the marble in the air long enough to deposit it...

...in one of the scoring cups.

You gain more points the futher you go.

Play fi e marbles each, and the highest score wins the game.

!rop a marble or knock a cup o er, the marble is out of play.

And before you start playing, your opponent places a

"disc of doom" underneath one of your cups.

#ut they do this while you$re not looking!

%f your marble falls into the cup that the "disc of doom" is underneath, the points will be deducted from the final score.

The game is great fun to play, either inside or outdoors, and it$s easy to make, too!

To make the Table Top Tornado itself, cut the bottom out of an empty plastic cup. Take care to lea e the rim around the edge...

...so that it looks like this!

This will help to pick up the marble.

The scoring discs are made in the design of your choice and pop them in the bottom of empty plastic cups, which will become the scoring cups!

!on$t forget to make the "disc of doom", too!

& erything stacks up neatly too, when you$ e finished!

The more skilled you become, the further apart you can place the scoring cups!
