How to Make a Classic 'Qua-Qua' Game

by orsh

In the following guide I will teach you how to make a classic game I used to play when I was a child. We called it 'Qua-
Qua' and it was very simple - ask a friend to pick one of the 4 colors painted on the 'Qua-Qua' and a random number.
Open the 'Qua-Qua' the number of times your friend said, switching each time between the upwards and sideways
position. Once you're nished, your friend must do the task written on the opened side of the color he picked.
Enjoy!
Supplies:

An A4 peace of paper.
4 markers or sharpies of di erent colors.
A pen.
A pair of scissors.
