Transform the tic-tac-toe game into a mushroom clearing. Such a game in a new form becomes understandable even for very young children. In addition to logic, the child will develop tactile and color perception, as well as spatial thinking.
You will need four cocktail straws, two color kinder surprise containers, corks, and white paint. Paint the corks with white acrylic or gouache mixed with PVA glue.
To get two types of hats, glue plastic droplets on half of them with superglue. Decorate the other half by dots with acrylic paints using a cotton swab. Attach the hats to the legs with glue or a button.
Lay out the tubes in the form of 3x3 cells and fasten them together, at the intersections, with tape or tie with a thread. The field for the game is ready.
You can also make mushrooms using buttons instead of Kinder Surprise containers. Button hats can be glued or sewn onto the legs.
How to play. Only two players can participate in the game. Players take turns placing one of their mushrooms in an empty cell. The main task of the players is to be the first to line up three of their mushrooms horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
