How to create the game and play it
Follow these steps to do the craft and make the shoebox matching game and then enjoy it:
1. Cut a hole in the shoebox and color around the hole with one of your permanent markers that match a felt ball.
2. Repeat cutting holes and coloring around the hole until you've used up all the colors that have a matching felt ball.
3. Make a design with the markers if you want as well, use any holiday theme that matches the time of year--such as Christmas!
4. Pick up one of your felt balls and put it in the matching hole.
