I remember this from girl scouts.
the sticks we often made from sawing up broom handles.
and we would do a 3 count rhythm, the first 2 beats
you tap or pound the bottom of both sticks on teh ground
(while sitting cross legged) and the 3rd beat you would
do any of various movements includeing clicking the tops of the
sticks on the grouond, or together, or passing a stick back and forth with your neighbor trying to stoy on the beat, or flipping one or both sticks in your hand. you would start out easy then do increasingly more complicated moves. I recall it was from pacific islands or phillipines.
