Homemade Christmas: Winter TicTacToe

Nov. 13, 2008 • 11:02 PM


A Homemade Christmas at SimplyVintagegirl.com
Winter's TicTacToe.
This great craft was given to us as a gift. I used it as a pattern to make more.
You need ten wooden sticks (tongue drepressor size). Paint them all one color. Lay two vertically. Glue the others horizonally on top. Allow to dry then use a paint pen or permanant (very fine tip) marker to divide the spaces into TicTacToe squares.
To make the game pieces, buy round wooden pieces at a craft store. (You could also use cardboard cut into circles. Make them thicker by gluing many together.) Paint the circles all white and allow to dry.
Snowman: Dry brush (or use colored pencils, pastels, or chalks) pink on a cheeks, then use a permanent marker to make the dots for the eyes and smile. Add a tiny orange felt triangle for the nose.
Puppies: They are just a little different. They use gray circles as ears and a nose. Black dots again for the eyes and one on the nose. You could use brown instead of gray as well.

This is a really cute idea! I love it! I think the kids can do this one by themselves.

School in 'R Home

Welcome to our Homeschool Blog: SchoolinRHome (School in Our Home!). We are in our 7th year of home schooling! About Me: I am a wife of 15 years to my high school sweetheart and I am the mother of our 5 children The Peas in our Pod are PANDA: 12 year old daughter, PRINCESS: 10 yr. old daughter, PILGRIM: 8 year old son, PEANUT: 4 year old son, and PRECIOUS: 2 year old daughter! We home school and home (cyber) charter school. No matter what you call it, we educate and train our own children under our own supervision, with God’s guidance and strength!
