This is a fun rainy day activity, and it just so happens that the day we played this....it was POURING outside. So it was perfect! But with the weather that we have had the past couple of weeks (105+ degrees) it is also a great "beat the heat" kind of game!!
I saw a photo of some wooden dice {on Pinterest}, but the photo didn't link back to the website. It was one of those spam pins. I hate when it does that. So I came up with my own using my cricut.

I used the "Bags and Tags" cartridge to cut out my box templates and the "Everyday Paper Doll" cartridge for all of the animals.
One dice was for animals, the other was for the animal emotions. We came up with 5 emotions, and as a bonus we added "dancing" for the 6th side. Just for entertainment value.
I covered the set of dice with clear packing tape to make them a bit sturdier and we were set!
They LOVED this game, and I LOVED watching them! My favorites were the "Dancing Snake" and the "Scared Bunny". The scared bunny screamed and bounced across the room. I think I may need to make another animal dice with farm animals on it for variety!








This looks so fun!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteIf my husband saw this, he would want to add a square for an animal to act like an emo.
