PAIR YOUR BUTTON MATCH GAME WITH —> Color Match Game {Busy Bag Idea}

Button Match Game Supplies:

* Large Craft Buttons {in pairs of TWO}
* Large Wood Circles {I found these at Hobby Lobby}
* Hot Glue Gun or Thick Tacky Glue
Optional Materials – Paint & Paint Brushes

Directions:

* First determine how many buttons and wood circles you need. Make sure to match everything together before you start assembling.
* Now the next step is completely optional but if you want to customize your button game, paint one side of your wood circles. Let dry completely.
* Get the hot glue gun ready. On the opposite side of the painted wood piece, glue one button in the center of the circle.
* Let the glue completely harden.
* Repeat for each button/wood circle combo.
* Once each piece is done – it’s time to play! Just like any matching game, flip the wood pieces over and try to find the matching piece.
* For easy storage, store your game in a plastic baggie.
