Jacks is one of the oldest and most widespread games in the world. All jacks games share a strategy: toss a ball in the air and scoop up pieces before the ball bounces. This game of skill inspired popular children's songs such as "This Old Man" (he played one, he played two, and so on). Who knew you could have fun, play a game and learn some history too?
