Turn Back The Clock: Building Your Own Version Of A Classic Family Game

Creating a homemade “Sorry” game can be a rewarding project that brings a classic board game into your personal style, offering a new twist to this timeless favorite. Whether you’re crafting it as a nostalgic nod to your childhood or introducing it to a new generation, the process is a wonderful blend of creativity, craftsmanship, and fun.

To start, you’ll need a sturdy base for your board, such as a piece of cardboard, plywood, or thick poster board. Sketch out the familiar track with its vibrant colored paths, Start zones, and Safety zones. You can either hand-paint the spaces or use printed stickers to add color and life. For an extra touch of nostalgia, incorporate playful elements, like bold fonts or whimsical decorations, into the game’s artwork.

The cards can be handmade from sturdy cardstock or laminated paper. Each card will have specific instructions, like “Move Forward 4” or “Sorry!,” which you can write or print in eye-catching designs. For the pawns, you can repurpose household items such as colored bottle caps, beads, or even small toy figures. Alternatively, you could craft simple wooden or clay pieces and paint them to match the four player colors.
