Method and system for magnetic toss gaming

Abstract

Methods, systems and pieces for developing and challenging eye-hand coordination are provided. In one version, a game is provided that includes one or more magnetically charged game pieces. A magnetic target may be mounted on a preferably inclined and magnetically attractive target surface. One or more game piece forms an aperture. The aperture enables the game piece to be more easily tossed toward and adhere to a magnetically attractive surface. The apertures further allow the game pieces to overlay each other when adhered to the target surface.

1 . A magnetic toss game piece comprising a substantively flat disk comprising a magnetically charged body material forming an aperture. 
     
     
         2 . The game piece of  claim 1  having a mass of less than four ounces. 
     
     
         3 . The game piece of  claim 1 , wherein the body material fully encompasses the aperture. 
     
     
         4 . The game piece of  claim 1 , wherein the body has a surface area less than a surface area of the aperture. 
     
     
         5 . The game piece of  claim 1 , wherein the body has a surface area of less than one half of the surface area of the aperture. 
     
     
         6 . The game piece of  claim 1 , wherein the body is shaped as a flat rim having an outer edge and an inner edge, and wherein the inner edge at least partially defines the aperture. 
     
     
         7 . The game piece of  claim 1 , wherein at least one disk defines an outer radius dimensioned approximately within the range of from two inches to ten inches. 
     
     
         8 . The game piece of  claim 1 , further comprising a magnetically attractive surface, wherein the surface is adapted for removable attachment of the body material. 
     
     
         9 . A magnetic toss game set comprising a plurality of flat magnetic disks, each disk having a body material forming an aperture. 
     
     
         10 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 9 , wherein a first surface of the body material of a first disk of the plurality of disks at least partly presents an image. 
     
     
         11 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 10 , wherein the image includes an element of color selected from the color group consisting of red, blue, yellow, green, purple and orange. 
     
     
         12 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 9 , wherein at least one disk defines an outer radius dimensioned approximately within the range of from two inches to ten inches. 
     
     
         13 . A magnetic toss game set comprising:
 a disk having a magnetically charged body material forming an aperture; and   a target.   
     
     
         14 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 13 , the target further comprising a magnetically charged target surface, whereby the target surface presents a magnetic charge opposite to the body material. 
     
     
         15 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 13 , wherein the body material is shaped as a flat rim having an outer edge and an inner edge, and wherein the inner edge defines the aperture. 
     
     
         16 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 13 , wherein the target is magnetically charged and is removably attachable to an external magnetic surface. 
     
     
         17 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 13 , further comprising a plurality of flat magnetic disks, each disk having a body material forming an aperture. 
     
     
         18 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 17 , wherein at least one body material of at least one disk is shaped as a flat rim having an outer edge and an inner edge, and wherein the inner edge defines the aperture. 
     
     
         19 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 17 , wherein the target presents a smaller target surface area than an aperture surface area of the magnetic disk. 
     
     
         20 . The magnetic toss game set of  claim 17 , wherein the target presents a target image having a smaller target surface area than an aperture surface area of the magnetic disk.
