My cousin and I LOVED Cat’s Cradle, we’d play it for hours… We would sometimes make up these crazy ways to take the string, and they’d actually work… Of course, if you take it in a weird way, then the next turn gets more complicated… We got to be pretty darn good at it.

I was trying to figure out how to make a Cat’s Cradle string for a kid I know. I dunno what type of string to use, though. I tried rubber bands, but it doesn’t work too well…
I saw the Koosh book about the game, I think someone I knew had it, but I could never get the moves from the book…
