Game Boards for Homemade Educational Games
Here are a few game boards. The boards can be printed on card stock or if you will be making "file-folder" games, print on heavy paper and glue inside of a file folder. I have two game board types to print. One type is the start-to-finish style and the other type is the race track style in which the player goes around and around the board track.
Printer Settings and Margins
If you think the margins are not wide enough on the files, use the Page Handling setting: Fit to printable area or Shrink to fit. or some similar setting. The option should appear when you press the pdf's print button.

Game Board Templates
Some of the templates are completely plain while others have some marking on them. Some are in color and some are not. I've included images to help you decide if you want to print any. The files are pdf and that means they are not editable. I know that is a disadvantage, but I made most of the templates from drawings. I think only one was made from a doc.

Both boards have similar markings. The file 006 has less detail. The game board below is similar to these two.

Race Track
Similar to the two above, this game board has the most markings and a starter card set. The card set is not complete, it's more of a beginning. See Blank Game Cards

Doc Version
The two game boards shown here are the Race Track type. The one on the left is a plain version of the 3 previous boards. The board on the right is very plain.
