Christmas TIC TAC TOE
We do love to play Tic-Tac-Toe; it is such a simple game, simple enough for the youngest ones in the family to join in, but oh so fun. This holiday themed, Christmas tic-tac-toe is such a fun Christmas activity that is easy to make and loads of fun to play again and again. This is a fun Christmas games for kindergartners or Christmas games for preschoolers, and older kids too! All you need are a few simple materials you may even have laying around your house!
For this Christmas Tic Tac Toe you need:

- Christmas string(or shiny ribbon)
- any small ornaments, two sets of at least 5 each(we used red and gold tiny gifts ornaments)
How to make the game:
The setup of this game will take you less than 5 minute. Tie the string around the cookie sheet so that you have 9 blocks- 3 down and 3 across.
Ready to play! That was super easy and fast, right?

Tip: You can also make this version travel-friendly by attaching magnets to the back of your items/ornaments you chose to play with.
