I remember playing jacks all the time as a young girl. I could play for hours, either by myself, or with a friend. I never tired of it. But kids these days have other amusements and, I fear, jacks has become less appealing. Jacks are a great game for kids of all ages. Playing Jacks works on eye-hand coordination, counting skills, problem solving, and fine motor control. Plus, it entertains your child!
By the way: I didn't notice the "W" sit of my child until after I had posted this (my PT friends would chastise me for allowing this).
