finska

Finska is the addictive log-tossing game from Finland.  An ancient Finnish game, Finska is a unique and seriously addictive outdoor game that will provide genuine entertainment at the beach, the park or in your own backyard.  A race to exactly 50 points, where every game is different, Finska requires both strategy and skill to defeat your opponent and claim victory.  World Championships are played each year in Lahti, Finland. Download the official rules of Finska here.

Finska has the added bonus of reinforcing mental arithmetic and as such has been adopted by many Australian primary schools as a great way of taking maths outside and making it fun.  We call that education by stealth.

So get off the couch, drop the electronic gizmos and get outside this summer for some fresh air and good times with Finska.
