-Find a placemat (mine was 50cents at Big Lots) and use a ruler to draw the checker board on the placemat.
*Be sure to fold the placemat over so there is enough room to store the game pieces inside.
Then use paint to color the checkerboard in.
Sew the two ends of the folded part so that the pieces will not fall out. Add velcro on the open side.
The game pieces are cut from foam sheets.
Then you're ready to play! :)
You can also add a tic-tac-toe board to the other side.
Roll it up and take it on a picnic, car ride, or to the beach. Have fun!!
What a great idea! So cute!
