Split Jenga pieces equally and sit in a large circle (on the floor or at a big table). Everyone has one piece that is marked. Then everyone builds a fortress to protect their marked piece (the marked piece must be stood up on its small side).

Everyone gets a projectile. We liked using those thick rubber bands that came on broccoli at the grocery store, but you could use Nerf guns, balled up paper, whatever--as long as it's not too light and not too heavy.

Once everyone is ready, take turns firing at each other's fortresses, trying to knock down their marked pieces. Nobody can touch their fortress at this point.

Last marked piece standing is the winner.

We had a big overstuffed rocking chair. My sister would sit in the chair and I would put a pillow over my head and run at her like a head-butting dinosaur. I won if I knocked her chair over backwards, and she won if she managed to kick me enough to make me back off. I think she was eight and I was nine.

The downstairs neighbors must have loved this...
