- Altoids tin
- Colorful cardstock
- Colorful buttons (at least two colors)
- Small magnets
- 1/4” washi tape

Directions:
- Trace the bottom of your Altoids container on two different colorful cardstock sheets. ( We did a solid for the bottom and a colorful pattern for the top).
- Cut out your traced Altoids container card stock paper.
- Use your washi tape to make a tic tac toe pattern onto the solid sheet.
- Glue the colorful pattern to the inside top of the Altoids tin and the solid color to the bottom with your glue stick.
- Carefully glue one magnet to the bottom of each button until you have 2 sets of the same 5 color button magnets.
- Let your magnets dry overnight.
- Store your magnets in the tin, they will stick to the inside top or bottom for a great travel tic tac toe game.
*Keep magnets away from small children, always supervise while using
