Altoid Word Magnets

Have lots of these empty Altoid tins lying around? Put 'em to good use. On the right, I used sand paper to scrape off the paint and writing. I cut out words (printed on cardstock) and stuck them on adhesive magnets (bought from Wal-Mart). And there you go.

materials:

empty altoid tin, construction paper, computer, lots of words!, adhesive magnet strips (available in rolls), scissors

Tic Tac Toe

Use 2 different color buttons (about 9 buttons of both colors). Glue little magnet pieces on the bottom of the buttons. Altoid tin box is metal so magnet works great! Play in the car as you travel! But don't play and drive.

materials:

empty altoid tin, buttons (2 different colors), hot glue, small round magnets, ribbon or stickers for the tic tac toe grid
