Family Game Night Theme

When we were at the junior high level, we had a reward day every 6 weeks.  The PTO bought items for the students to purchase with their reward tickets.  We did themes for each event.

I worked on the family game painting over the summer.  My teenagers and their friends looked playing the games on the big boards.  They were actually kindda sad when I took them to the school.  Need to at least make the games they played with again.

NOTE:  Stick to easy boards without all the stuff like Life!

Who to do these things?  The right year I did things for the PTO, one of the ladies could cut shapes out without anything to go off of.  I took clip art, copied it to Word and blew it up large.  I then printed and would draw a graph over it.  I started with the outside lines, then made HALF lines to get an idea for the Blow up version.  Then I took the Craft paper and had the size I wanted laid out and taped pieces together on the back.  I would measure the clip art in the smallest measurements on the ruler.  I would use the same measurements numbers but in feet.  (Also tried the whole x25 thing too).  When I was starting out you can see I did alot smaller items.  By the time we left Junior High learned we had alot of space to fill, make it HUGE!
  Fun thing is for regular events at the High School I need smaller things, but it works out when doing Homecoming Dance or After Prom.

LOVE This theme probably because it is so colorful. Going to use it again at some point.
