Make a Draughts Board

Hello! Sorry I didn't post sooner. The computer wasn't working for a bit, my cat died, and I've been ill.

Anyway, here is how to make a draughts/checkers board:

You'll Need

  •   Cardboard
  • Pencil
  • Ruler
  • Black or white paint
  • 24 bottle tops, half of which one colour and the other half another colour
With the ruler and the pencil, draw 64 squares on the cardboard and then paint them in, so that it looks something like this:

And tada! You're done! The bottle tops will be used as the counters to the person who recieves the present.
