Rock Paper Scissors: Let’s Have Fun

5 Rock Paper Scissors: Let’s Have Fun My father took us on a cross-country train tour. We were on the train for several days. My brother and I were really excited the first day. We were watching the countryside roll by outside, talking to passengers in nearby seats, and sleeping in bunk beds. But soon, the novelty wore off. On the second day, my brother cried, “ We're bored! " Dad replied, " Bored? I will not tolerate that. Just because you can't play on the computer doesn't mean there's nothing to do. " He suggested that we play a game he used to play when he was a boy. " This game is called Rock, Paper, Scissors. You don't need anything to play it, " he explained. “ All the kids in my village loved playing. It's really easy, and it helps you concentrate, too. "

Then, he showed us how to play the game. There are three moves. A hand closed like a fist is a rock. A hand flat, with all fingers touching, is paper. And a hand with two fingers out like a pair of scissors is, of course, scissors. Easy, right? That's all there is to it. You raise your hand above your head, count to three, and bring down your hand in one of the three gestures. Here's how to determine the winner. Rock breaks scissors, paper covers rock, and scissors cut paper. Not complicated at all! Of course, all the hands have to come out at the same time. So you all call out “ Rock, paper, scissors! " On the last one, you show your hand with one of the three gestures. Let's say you bring down a rock, and your opponent brings down scissors. The rock breaks the scissors and you win. If you both bring down the same gesture, it's a tie. We started playing right away. " Rock, paper, scissors! " I won! “ Again, " my brother begged. We played the game with my brother, my father, and nearby passengers. We laughed a lot. We love this game. It's simple, but fun. You can play it anytime and any where. And yet, it's psychological, it's mental and it requires concentration, too.
