Can I buy Snakes and Ladders?

After watching my daughter play the old board game Snakes and Ladders with her Grandad, I thought that would be a great game to buy for Mia to play . . . could I find a shop that sold it? Nope! I was looking for a £5 game but could only get compendium games at £20 with all the games you could ask for, including Snakes and Ladders. I then decided to save £20 and create a game from paper, an Oxo cube and some of Mia's princesses for counters. So here it is, 20 minutes of work completed. Snakes and Ladders Mia didn't manage a full game but hey, I saved some money and almost, just almost, completed our first board game with Mia. Hope it gives you inspiration to be creative and save money.
