Yes, I did. I once said this was like a 2D version of Nim, but no one understood because no one else had ever heard of Nim. Wait, now that I'm thinking, when I was a kid my grandfather once played a game with matches with me, he put a bunch of matches on the table then we took turns removing either 1, 2 or 3 matches until one couldn't.

Yep. That's the Nim I'm most familiar with. Simple game. You can use any tokens that are readily available like matches, sugar packets, coins, toothpicks, pebbles, etc. I found that leveraging children's desire to be victorious was a good way to interest them in math. Go was another great game for teaching them math.
