Peru - Cusco 265 - Juego de Sapo

The object of this Peruvian lawn game is to throw heavy gold-coloured metal coins and get them in the holes in the box for different points. The most parts are for getting the coin in the frog's mouth (hence the name, in Spanish "sapo" means frog).

 

Like the American game of horseshoes or bocci or the carnival game of ring toss, the game takes seconds to pick up and a long time to master the precise throws! Fun times!
