Obtain an empty pizza box from a pizza place. They usually give them out at a small cost, if any. We got the 12" size.
I created a title page, with instructions on them. (You can have one of the kids draw a teddy bear, use clip art, etc.)
The instructions are:
Rules for Teddy Bears Picnic
1. The youngest person goes first!
2. Roll the dice.
3. You get whatever you roll. The goal is to make a complete meal—hot dog, carrot, apple, milk and cupcake.
4. If you land on an ant with an apple, you lose a piece.
5. Have fun playing!
--I then got clip art for a place setting, and all the items listed above--hot dog, carrot, apple, milk and cupcake--or you can fashion your own.
--Cover the food with contact paper to make it last longer!
--I glued the place setting onto a paper plate, to add interest.
--I printed a paper dice blank, with a clip of all the food on each side and an ant carrying away an apple.
--Cut out the die and fold/glue it together.
--Add a old piece of fabric to the mix as a picnic blanket. I used tissue paper since I was doing this on a large scale.
Viola! You have a nice, new game. And it is fun, too!!
