Instructions

제기 만들기 (Make Jegi) - copied directly from Scout Association Activities -
Have a chat with everyone about Jegichagi and the different levels of games (see ‘Change the level’).
Explain to everyone that they’ll each make a Jegi and then play the game, both as individuals and in teams.
Make sure everyone has a piece of paper or fabric big enough to make a Jegi. Everyone will need a square piece, approximately 20cm x 20cm, to start with.
You can use a ruler, pen or pencil, and scissors for everyone to cut out their square. An adult volunteer could also make them before the session to make it quicker.
Once everyone has their square, they need to place it flat on a surface, such as a table or the floor.
Everyone should stack 3to 4 coins or counters in the just above the bottom side of their square, making sure the coins or counters are placed in the middle.
Next, fold over the bottom edge of the square, covering the coins. Then keep folding the paper over lengthways from the bottom to the top, making sure the coins stay stacked in the centre. Everyone should now have a long strip of paper/fabric with the coins stacked securely in the middle.
Bring the two sides/ends of the paper together, so that the strip’s folded in half with the coins at one end and the two tail ends touching together at the other.
Secure the coins inside the paper/fabric strip, using an elastic band or some string.
Cut lengthways along the tails, making multiple snips approx. 1cm apart along the sides, so that you have lots of thin strips.
You’re now ready to play the game.

게임하자 (Let’s play)
Everyone should find a space where they can kick freely.
The winner of the game is the person who kicks their Jegi the most times, without letting it touch the ground. A bit like doing keepie uppies with a football.
Everyone starts by holding their Jegi and dropping it towards their foot. They then need to kick the Jegi upwards, then it kick again before it reaches the floor to keep it in the air. They should continue to do this as many times as they can.
Everyone should try and count this for themselves if they can.
The game ends when the last person kicking their Jegi lets it fall to the ground. Everyone should then share their score, if they want to, to see who kept their Jegi up with the most kicks.
