    Games I Play continued
    This is how tivoli is played. Get a board with rows of nails and numbers inside the nails. Then you have ten lead balls and a stick and hit the balls one by one until they are finished. Then count all the numbers and play away. Sometimes money is put up and the person who wins gets the money that is up.
