To make these quick board games I used dot painters to make the paths (10 dots each). You could also use stickers or stamps to make your path. I then drew quick Christmas shapes at the end. B chose the "guys" he wanted to use for the game and grabbed some dice.
To be honest, I made these really fast using construction paper. I didn't want to spend a lot of time or use my scrapbooking materials before I knew if he was interested in playing them or not. Now that I know he enjoys them, I'm going to make a few new ones after Christmas using cardstock, stamps, stickers etc.
For older children, use more than 10 dots and/or encourage them to make their own board game!
Ohhh, this would be a PERFECT thing for one our activity bags when we're out and about at dinners or such. I'm totally making this!
