About Dice Dots
A big die shows its dots, and your child picks the number that matches. With practice, the dot patterns can be read at a glance, without counting one by one. Older kids add up two dice, just like in a board game.
How to play
- Look at the dots on the die.
- Tap the number that tells how many dots there are.
- Use the keys 1, 2 and 3 on a keyboard to answer.
What your child practices
