How to DIY a Large Jenga Game

DIY jenga game

Did you play Jenga all the time as a kid growing up? I know I did- I loved it! Well now the game has been taken to a whole new level. For all the times you have a bunch of friends and family over, this DIY Large Jenga Game is SO much fun to play! And it is perfect because it is just as much fun for kids as it is for adults:)

To make it, it couldn’t be more simple. We made ours 21 stacks high. In order to do this we bought seven 2×4’s to get 63 pieces, each one being 10 1/2 inches. With each piece being 10 1/2 in. long you are able to get 9 pieces per 2×4. We cut ours using our beloved Ryobi compound Miter Saw.

Once all the pieces were cut, I then sanded down all the ends so that it wouldn’t hurt anyone while playing, and so the pieces could slide in and out of the game easily. {we love this Dewalt sander} diy large jenga set

And thats it! So simple and gives you such a fun huge game for all of your outdoor parties!!

    We wrote dares/commands on our boards so when you pull one you might get something fun like, do a 5 second dance, or something handy, like get anyone a refill who needs one, or something odd like “Laugh until you have everyone else laughing with you”. Good times.
