Capture the quarter or other coin.

To get going you need a bucket with water in it, one large coin,(Quarter) and some Pennies or small coins.

Drop the Quarter in the bucket filled with the water. Next, take some small coins or Pennies and drop them into the water trying to "capture the Quarter", by dropping a Penny on top of it.

Keep count of how many coins it takes to get the penny onto the Quarter. The next player needs to try and get a lower score to win. Sound's easy doesn't it?
