Hand Made Wood Peg Game Teal from Thailand, "Elimination"
Designed for a single player, Thailand's Waraporn Khamsuk presents an excellent household challenge. Handcrafted from local rain tree wood, the game features a single square board with a small grid of circular holes for the insertion of pegs with teal painted ends. The objective of the game is to eliminate all but one of the pegs by having them jump over each other in creative and logical ways. The board lifts up to reveal an interior for storing the colorful pegs.

"My favorites are the wooden games because I grew up with them. They teach me to think, plan and concentrate, and I apply these skills in my everyday life."
