How to Mount a Game Board

Don't buy board games, create your own.

Making board games can be a game in itself. Rather than buying expensive board games, photocopy them from books and mount them on poster board. Take time to color and customize the game board. Laminate your board or place clear sheets on top of it to protect it from spills, and to make it last as long as any of your store-bought game boards.

Things You'll Need

• Game board
• Blank paper
• Pencil crayons or markers
• Glue
• Poster board
• Laminator or clear contact paper
• Stapler

Instructions

1. Photocopy the game board from a book. Color it in with pencil crayons or markers.

2. Glue the back of the game board and place it on top of the poster board. Press it down with your hands and let it sit until the glue dries.

3. Pass the game board through a laminator. If you do not have a laminator, staple clear contact paper over the game board.
