Toss the ball high (but no too high), pick up one jack and then catch the ball. Keep the jack in your hand and go on to pick up the other jacks one at a time. You lose your turn if you do not catch the ball, or if you do not pick up a jack, or if you drop off the jacks from your hand.When you finish all the ten jacks, you now try to do the same thing again but with two jacks at one time.
