This game includes 12 stacking cups that students can use to learn competitive speed stacking which can exercise a variety of skills including following directions, processing speed and visual motor coordination. The goal is to stack the cups in groups of 3s, 6s or 12 up and down in the fastest possible time. Students can follow the written directions with pictures or watch videos to learn how to stack efficiently in different combinations. Stacking has its own association and tournaments for those who want to be compete. For other children it can just be a fun hobby that requires visual coordination and perception, focus, and the willingness to practice. Students could get discouraged when the cups fall over and if they do not appreciate that they will need a lot of practice to get as fast as the children on the videos. The instructions include indications of speed at different levels so students can set appropriate goals. The box includes the stacking cups, rod and lock to keep the cups together for transport. The mat, timer and additional cups need to be purchased separately.
