Step 3: In the other short end of the box, cut out three smaller arches. Make sure there's space between each arch and between the arches and the sides of the box. Think of a design to paint around each arch, such as a monster mouth or a bunny mouth.

Step 4: Paint the outside of the box on the side with the two arches, and on the inside of the box with the side with the three arches. Let dry. Step 5: Above the two arches paint "5" points and "10" points. Paint higher point amounts above each of the three arches. Glue one of the "tongues" of the cut-open box underneath the end of the box with two arches. Step 6: Break down a short end of one of the lids, and glue it under the end with three arches to create a lip that will catch the marbles.

Draw a large circle, usually about 5 to 10 feet across, and place 13 marbles in the center, spaced 3 inches apart to form a cross. Using a designated shooter marble, players take turns shooting from outside the circle and trying to hit a target marble out of the ring while keeping the shooter marble inside the ring. If the shooter misses, the player picks up his shooter marble and his turn is over. If the shooter scores a hit but the shooter marble rolls out of the ring, the player keeps any marbles that rolled out, including his shooter marble, and his turn is over.
