I was talking with a co-worker about the games we played growing up and Skullys was discussed. I decided to introduce the children i work with to skullys, I made my very own board out of poster board, electrical tape, and contact paper, and the kids loved it. The only thing was it ripped up in 3 weeks from the eveyday use. I purchased this board, it came quickly, the children and follow staff just LOVE PLAYING. Old School is back!
