Number of players: 2+
Materials needed:
- A pair of 6 sided dice
How to:
- Choose who goes first (click here for ways to pick who goes first).
Take turns rolling the dice:
- If a 3, 4, 5 or 6 is rolled: pick up that number of items
- If an 8 is rolled: sweep or vacuum one floor
- If a 9 is rolled: dust one piece of furniture
- If a 10 is rolled: clean a sink, a window or a mirror
- If an 11 is rolled: clean something in the kitchen (microwave, stove, refrigerator, counter, etc)
- When doubles are rolled: Roll again and double that number. This is the number of items to be picked up.
- Lucky 7s! If a 7 is rolled: Free time! Take a 10 minute break.
Players earn points equal to the number they rolled (for example, if a player rolls a 6 they earn 6 points). If a player rolls doubles, they get points equal to the doubles plus the points equal to their second role (for example, if a player rolls two 4’s and then a 5, they earn a total of 4 + 4 + 5 = 13 points). The first player to reach 60 points is the winner!
