1 – 1″ x 8″ x 10′ board – optional carrying crate (actually measure 3/4″ x 7 1/4″ x 10′).How to Make a DIY Jumbo Jenga Yard Game Materials I also made a carrying crate that doubles as the Jumbo Jenga stand, it has enough room for the 54 jumbo jenga pieces and dice. A ‘2×3’ board that you buy is actually 1.5 inches thick, 2.5 inches wide and we can cut them 7.5 inches long…perfect! The traditional Jenga pieces are 1.5 cm thick, 2.5 cm wide and 7.5 cm long, making the jumbo jenga pieces couldn’t be simpler using 2×3 boards. You can totally play the traditional way too. They will roll and whatever color it lands on, they have to move a block of that color. Each side of the dice (die) is a different color and there is a corresponding set of blocks in each color. The roll ‘n go version puts a fun twist on the game, and I kept it simple for my young kids.
I thought it would be fun to make a giant sized version for the yard with a ‘throw ‘n go’ option (I’m calling it Roll ‘n Go). Hi, I’m Amy and I love to build things and share plans at Hertoolbelt! My kids love to play the traditional Jenga.
