How to use these pages
In a roll and draw game, each number on the die is one part of the picture. Roll a 1 and draw the first part, roll a 2 and draw the next, and fill in a dot on the table for every part you draw. You need a 1 to start, and when you roll a part you already have all of, the dice passes on. The first player to finish the whole picture wins.
Every game has three pages: a one-player sheet with a big drawing space, a sheet for two players side by side with a row of dots each, and the finished picture with every part, to show younger players what they are building or to colour in afterwards.
The games practise counting, reading a table, taking turns and drawing simple shapes, and they need nothing but one die and a pencil. They work as a class party game, a quiet game at the table or a brain break, and the drawings never come out the same twice.
Frequently asked questions
How do you play roll a snowman?
Roll one die. The table says which part that number is: 1 is a snowball, 2 a hat, 3 an eye, 4 the carrot nose, 5 a stick arm and 6 a button. Draw that part and fill in one of its dots. You need a 1 to start, and once all of a part's dots are filled the roll is skipped. The first to finish the whole snowman wins.
How many players can play?
One player can play alone, two can share the two-player sheet, and a class can play in pairs or small groups with a sheet each and one die per table.
What age is it for?
About four to nine. Younger children can play with a grown-up reading the table; older children can race each other or play to finish in the fewest rolls.
What paper size is the PDF?
Each game has a US Letter PDF and an A4 PDF with the same three pages. Print at 100% (actual size).
