Board Game

This is a board game that I made from an old tattered and torn Little Engine that Could book, a deck of cards missing multiple pieces, an old magnetic board that I wasn't using for anything, and bits of paper from cards and other things. We have loved the book, but it had seen better days. Joe (my almost 3 year old) loves it, and it is hilarious to see him and my very animated little sister play it. For the cards I made alphabet flash cards with a short easy exercise for each letter, and at the bottom it tells you how many spaces to move. So this game is gonna be great for in the car (hence the magnet) and for quick easy flash cards(with or without the game).

This board game idea came from a challenge by http://www.greenisuniversal-reuse.com/ wherein you use things that are normally just tossed into a landfill to make useful things.
