Racing Eggs Game

Creating this game is very simple. You will need:

• Several egg cartons from your recycle bin (we used plastic transparent egg containers, but you can use standard cardboard cartons). Here we used 2 tops and 2 bottoms.
• Plastic eggs (as many as you have players). We misplaced our plastic eggs and we used kinder egg capsules instead.
• Decorative tape or stickers (to decorate plastic eggs as play figures and easily distinguish them). If you have plastic eggs of different colors, you can skip this step.
• Painters tape to attach cartons together.
• Artificial grass.
• Dice.

To put the Racing Eggs 3D board together, start by taping egg cartons together. Just place them on a flat surface and use painters tape to attach them one to another. Decorate your eggs (play figurines) with different decorative tape. And place them in the first row of the 3D board.Add to several rows artificial grass – these rows will be turned to “nests” where eggs will have to rest for a turn.

I taped the extra fields. Didn’t want to confuse kids with where to place their eggs.

• Start by placing figurines / eggs in the first row.
• Use dice and take turns to move figurines / eggs towards the last row on the board.
• When players land in the “nest”, they skip the turn.
•  First player to reach the last row is the winner.

Egg cartons are 30 fields – 5 rows by 6 rows. You can easily turn egg cartons horizontally or vertically and gain some extra spots for up to 6 players.It would be also fun to turn this into Minions Race and you can pick up how to make your own kinder egg capsule Minions at Red Ted Art.
