>For kids that was a way to decide who is going to fetch the water for the table (smaller number or higher number of the table).
I only knew the version where your age is the number on the glass. For fetching water, it was the slowest person to say "pot d'eau" (water jug) and sometimes put a hand to your head (it depended on the group).
