Game Pieces

1. Draw some characters (2 of each) onto thin cardboard and color them in
2. Cut out your pieces, make sure the characters that go together have the same cut out shape
3. On one piece of the character, cut a slit on the bottom. On the other piece of the character, cut a slit on the top. This was you can slot them together for it to stand up. This may take some trial and error to make them fit together perfectly.

Board

6. Then double knot the two pieces of fabric together all the way around, leaving a small hole to stuff the stuffed animal.

8. Add a friendly face with sharpies, fabric marker, or buttons.
