This tic tac toe game is a simple gift idea, travel game, fun for the backyard… it’s easy to make, and it’s inexpensive!
Materials needed: *Cutting Board (mine came from the Dollar Tree) *Flat marble rock/stones (mine came from the Dollar Tree) *Electrical or Gaffers Tape *Optional Sharpie *Optional Travel Bag
Start with the cutting board and add your electrical or gaffers tape to it to make the “#”. You could use a sharpie if you wanted as well.
Mine has been outside all year, & as you see in this picture it’s still holding together. We are in Colorado which means hot summers, snow in winters, wind, sun, and rain…
Pick out 2 shades of stones from your bag – for your “x” and “o”. Use a sharpie to draw the x and o on the bottom. You could leave them plain as long as you have 2 shades to tell the difference. We made 5 “x” and 5 “o” and that seems to be enough.
I put our whole set in a cinch bag and hang it on our gazebo with a carabiner. The bag keeps the game together and makes it easy for travel. I had my bag on hand, but you could get a zip lingerie bag from the Dollar Tree to keep the game together in.
Have fun!
