Project #77: Story Dice
Story Dice by Helen Bird from Curly Birds
Once upon a time…roll these dice and create a story based on the pretty pictures that you see.
What You’ll Need:
*Pretty Card and Paper (stickers, stamps if preferred)
*Pen
*Glue and brush
*Scissors
*Ruler
Step 1: To construct a cube, draw 6 squares (2”x2”) in a cross formation on the reverse side of cardstock. Include tabs for fitting the cube together.
Step 2: Cut out the cube, and on the reverse side of cardstock score all the internal lines.
Step 3: Using pretty paper, draw and cut out simple story subjects. Glue onto the cube. If preferred, use stickers, stamps, or magazine pictures for the images.
Step 4: Glue the cube together.
Step 5: Roll the dice and unite the pictures into a story.

What a great project! My daughter loves when we tell stories spontaneously. This is going to make her so happy.

I love this! Makes me wish I still worked at a pre-school. Oh well, at least I still have a neice that I think will love these. Actually, I think I'm going to make one set like this for my younger neice and another set with some more grown-up pictures/ideas for my teenage neice whose always writing stories. Maybe some celebrity pictures, cities, jobs, stuff like that.
