Putting the Board Together subtitle

  • Decide on position of snake path for game board by placing it down on inside of open folder.
  • Glue the back of snake and permanently attach it to file folder.
  • Write or draw on each playing space according to the needs of your game.
  • Have fun decorating game board with your child!

A Place to Keep the Game subtitle

  • Close folder and place it with the back cover facing up.
  • Glue envelope to back of folder so that address side is down and flap is facing up.
  • Use envelope to store any small items that go with the game board for the game you have made (e.g. playing cards, a spinner, playing pieces). This keeps everything you need all together and makes it easy to carry with you!
