Get set up

Gather the required materials: Dice. Set them out before explaining the first round. Choose an indoor area where the group can participate without blocking walkways.

LET’S PLAY

Here’s how it works.

  1. Give each player the same number of dice.
  2. Start the timer.
  3. Stack dice vertically one at a time.
  4. If the tower falls, rebuild immediately.
  5. Measure the tallest standing tower at the end.

A few ground rules

Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.

Mix it up

Use the non-dominant hand or race to a target of six dice.

Make it a great round

Use larger dice for younger children.

Keep everyone comfortable

Use clean, stable, age-appropriate materials and remove anything sharp, breakable or unsuitable for the youngest player.
