Nice Dice

Everyone wins when your kids get rolling on math, probability, and creativity skills in this Model Magic® project.

1. Shape two cubes from Model Magic. Mix bits of colored Model Magic with black or white to create unique colors.

2. Make double dots in a different color for each number from one through six.

3. Stick the dots on each die. Did you know that the dots on opposite sides of the 6-sided cube add up to 7? (1 is opposite 6, 4 is opposite 3, and 2 is opposite 5.)

4. Dry the dice overnight before playing games with them.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

"We made dice for both our game and mathematics badges. The kids thought up such clever ideas for using the dice."
Steve H., scout leader.

"Nice Dice are the perfect tools for exploring probability."
Abdule M., home-school parent.

Dice have been around for more than 2,000 years, entertaining people with games and determining outcomes of disputes. The modern version probably originated in 18th-century England with a popular game called Hazard.
