We have been spending our summer outside playing in our backyard and exploring new parks. We combined our love for outdoors and playing board games into one simple and fun activity. Check out our latest wood chip game…Outdoor Tic Tac Toe.
You are never to young or old to play Tic Tac Toe. My kids enjoy playing X’s and O’s since they were little and it is still one of their go to games. By creating a tactile outdoor version of this classic game, the kids have renewed interest in playing this classic game.
Outdoor Tic Tac Toe:
- Sidewalk Chalk in a variety of colors
- Small Sticks ~ to create the Tic Tac Toe grid
- 10-12 wood chips ~ similar sizes for the game pieces
This game is perfect for playing in our backyard, at the park or while camping. One of my favorite things is that in order play, the kids need to go on a simple outdoor adventure to gather all the playing pieces…a nature walk.
Once the kids gather all the materials, color the game pieces with chalk.
I love how the color of the chalk plays with the texture of the wood.
