More details - Game On, Front Porch Kit

Chip, The Clip Board
 
I decided to design a Travel Game Book using "Chip" as my cover. The book includes the License Plate Game, Alphabet Game, and Sign Game.
 
I have some detail photos to share with you.
 
The License Plate Game
 
 
 
I found a tablet of the United States at Mardel Book Store that I cut apart and glued to the back of the cardstock and then cut the states out. I found a printable version of all the states license plates on Pinterest. I attached them to cardstock and mounted them next to the states. I put the states in alphabetical order. The website for the license plates is: www.myfamilytravels.com//assets/pdfFamilyTravelForum.com
 
I punched small scalloped squares from the Chalkboard tape that I put beside the state and license plate. All the participant has to do is check the square with a chalk marker, as they find the license plates. The game instructions is also printed on the above website.
If you are local there are copies of the license plates and States available for your use.
 
The Alphabet Game:
 
 
 
I used the alphas in the kit and cut the chalkboard tape in 1/4" strips and placed them above the letters. As you are traveling and see an object or word that begins with the letter A , for example, you write with the chalk marker on the strip above the letter.
 
The Sign Game:
 
 
I used the Cricut cartridge "CARS" to cut the road signs.
 
 
The pages are 5 X 7 with rounded corners. My darling husband drilled holes in "Chip" so I could put rings in to hold the book together. The cover of the book is not attached to "Chip" so you could turn the cover page and use "Chip" as a surface to write on.
Hope you enjoy!
