Product Description:

I'm not sure what's more likeable here the simple concept or the cute packaging! The small, portable game consists of nine picture dice packaged in a sturdy 3.25" round tin. The dice are printed with simple brown-on-white pictures on each face for a total of 54 different images. A few examples include: a clock, a bee, a shooting star, a key, a flashlight, an apple, fire, a magnifying glass, a question mark, a book, a light bulb, and a tree. Originally designed for storytelling, there are three game ideas included inside the cover, each of which entails rolling the dice and using some or all of the dice to create a story. You can modify the number of dice, play solo or as a group for more variety. Of course, you could also use a roll of the dice to pick a theme for extemporaneous speaking, to inspire young children to write a story (using just one or two cubes), or as writing prompts. I'm sure you can come up with some of your own educational and party ideas as well! - Jess

A few examples include: a clock, a bee, a shooting star, a key, a flashlight, an apple, fire, a magnifying glass, a question mark, a book, a light bulb, and a tree.

I purchased this as a gift for a coworker. This a great way to entertain kids while waiting for something, and to spark their creativity and confidence at the same time. We don't use the timer or game rules, but use the dice. They are easy to keep in the glove box and have them with us at all times.
Tristan M on May 10, 2021
These story cubes will be a great switch up to our writting prompts. My child wants to be an author so anything that has her create stories is great.
