How to Make a Refrigerator Scrabble Board Game

The Letters

• 1

  Print out a listing of letters onto card stock. Use a word processing program to create letters in the font and color of your choice. There are 100 letters in a standard Scrabble game. See the "Resources" section for a chart of the letter distribution.

• 2

  Cut out the letters so that each one is centered in a 1-inch square. Decorate the squares so that they can be displayed on the refrigerator as a decoration when not in use.

• 3

  Mark each letter with its point value. You can follow the guidelines of Scrabble or create your own values.

• 4

  Cut your magnet sheet so that you have as many magnets as letters. The magnets should not measure larger than the paper letters.

• 5

  Peel the backing off each magnet, and attach one letter to each magnet. Place the magnets on the side of the refrigerator.

The Board

• 6

  Draw a 15 x 15-inch square board on a large sheet of paper. Each square should be 1 x 1 inch.

• 7

  Mark areas on the board for double and triple letter and word scores. Follow the standard of the Scrabble game, or place these bonus areas wherever you choose.

• 8

  Shade in each bonus area using colored pencils. Make sure the bonus is visible under the color.

• 9

  Attach one magnet to each corner of the board, and place it on your refrigerator. This board will keep your Scrabble games organized on the fridge.
