I don’t know why, but I had so much fun making this file folder game! It is another one of my uses for bulletin board borders.
This is the boarder that we used.

All I did was cut some colored paper into strips and attached it to the folder. Then I cut the border and attached the corresponding color name. Then I laminated it. (By the way, I don’t think I have mentioned it, but I just use clear contact paper to laminate our stuff.) Then, I used some poker chips that I got from a garage sale and wrote all the letters for all of the color names. The kids get to practice spelling the names of the primary and secondary colors.

    LOVE the idea of using poker chips. I hadn’t even thought of that. I’ve been collecting milk bottle tops like crazy, and my husband just rolls his eyes….. However, this is a great idea.
