One of my older son’s favorite games to play is matching. He’s not really big on games that involve luck, like Chutes and Ladders, because he REALLY doesn’t like to lose. However, if he can have control over winning, he’s all about it! He has quite the memory so sometimes he wins without me even realizing it. (Yes, I just admitted that I’ve been beat by a 4 year old!) There are a ton of these game out there but I thought I could simplify it and save myself some money at the same time. Who doesn’t love that?!
What You’ll Need: Wooden Circles (an even amount), stickers, Modge Podge (or other sealant)
If you have a toddler or preschooler, you probably have about a million to a billion, half empty, sticker sheets lying around. If you get lucky however, you may be able to find enough for this project! I had such luck and they happened to be one of Gav’s favorite things, dinosaurs!
Separate your wood circles into pairs and place a sticker on each. Make sure you only use each picture once per pair. Brush a layer of Modge Podge over the top, let dry, and you’re ready to play!
Super simple and a great, non screen related activity!
