how do you play spoons?

Question

The card game

Answer 1

ooohhh, i love that game. It's kinda like musical chairs....you sit in a circle and lay out spoons in the middle, but one less spoon than the number of people playing. Then, someone deals 4 cards to everyone. Then, that person starts the game by picking the top card off the deck. The object is to get 4 cards with the same number (four aces, four 3's etc) so if the card the dealer picks is the same number as a card he is holding, he will keep the card from the deck and take a card from his hand and pass that face-down to the next player. Then that player can either use the card or pass it on to the next player, and so on. When someone gets four of a kind, he or she grabs a spoon. Then the other people try to get a spoon, but someone won't get one so that person is out. You can only take a spoon if you have four of a kind.....however, you can make a fake grab at a spoon to try to get other people to grab one.....then everyone who touched a spoon is out. And that's all there is to it.

Answer 2

Ok it is like musical chairs -- one less spoon is needed than the number of people you have. First, you deal out 7 cards to each person (I think it is 7). The dealer than takes the rest of the deck. He picks up one card at a time and decides if he wants to keep it or not. Either way he must pass one card on to the next player so that he only has 7 cards in his hand at any moment. Each person does this with the cards they get passed and the last person who is next to the dealer just discards into a pile. When you get 4 cards of the same number then you grab a spoon. Everyone else tries to get the others whether or not they have 4 of the same number. The person left spoonless is either out or lost the round. The trick is when you get 4 of a kind, you want to be sneaky with getting your spoon. If the dealer goes through all of the cards in the deck and no one has anything, then he can use the pile the last person next to him was making.

Answer 3

you all have 4 cards...1 person passes 1 card at a time to the person to his right. You try to get all four cards the same numbers. The spoons are in the middle of the circle of people. If you have 4 people, you have 3 spoons, 5 people=4 spoons and so on...if you have four same cards, you grab a spoon, but watch the spoons because if you don't have onne, Anymore questions, jus ask.

Answer 4

You play spoon like this:
1st- give each player 4 cards(yes they can look at them)
2nd-take the rest of the pile and put it on the table
3rd look at the first card on the table only u
if you don't need it then pass it.then just keep going in that order. When you get all 4 card to match you grab a spoon.
By the way you out one less spoon than players so if you have 2 players you put out 1 spoon.

then every time you win you add a letter untill u can spell spoons.

Answer 5

Hold two spoons back-to-back between your fingers and thumb, using your index (i think) finger as a pivot. Hit them rythmically between your thigh and spare hand.
