Halloween Dice

What To Do:

1. Help your child measure the Halloween-themed picture against one side of the square plastic foam block.
2. If it fits perfectly, glue it on. If not, trim the sides with scissors before glueing.
3. Have your child trace one side of the foam block five times on white paper.
4. Let him cut out the five squares.
5. Show your child how to attach the Velcro circles. Make sure you point out that every circle has two parts -- it's really important that your child doesn't lose either part.
6. Let your child attach the Velcro circles all over the five remaining sides of the foam block.
7. He should attach the other part of each Velcro circle on the five white squares.
8. This step is just for you! Write down a Halloween-themed question on the five squares of white paper. Get creative. Questions can range from the standard "What is your favorite part about Halloween?" to the playful "If you could be a superhero for the day, who would it be and why?"
9. Attach each white square to the foam block using the velcro circles.
10. At your family's next dinner, have your child roll the dice first.
11. Tell him to read the question that is facing up. (If the Halloween-themed picture is facing up, his turn is skipped.)
12. He answers the question before handing the Halloween dice to the next person at the dinner table.
13. Keep passing the dice around until every one has answered at least one question.

This is the game that never has to end. Swap out questions when you get bored with certain questions, or make up silly rules for your family. Maybe whoever rolls the Halloween-themed picture, gets to eat dessert first -- or last!
