Giant Yahtzee®

Yahtzee® has been entertaining kids and adults alike for over sixty years, but did you know that it was invented on a Bermuda boating vacation? (In fact, the name itself is a take on “yacht.” See?) So it’s perfectly appropriate to honor the origins of the game by bringing the fun outside with this upsized version—and your kids will love yelling “Yahtzee!” for all to hear!

Materials
  1. Start by gathering all of your supplies. Check a hobby or art supplies store for wooden cubes that can serve as dice.
  2. Paint your cubes with the white paint. Allow to dry.
  3. Using the Spouncers, paint black dots on each side of the cube to make the pips. Make sure your sides are numbered from one through six.
  4. Once the paint dries, spray your cubes with the clear spray sealer.
  5. Place your cubes in the bucket until you are ready to play, following the standard rules of Yahtzee®.
  6. Use the free printable scorecard to keep score throughout the game.

Don’t forget to keep score! Print out your own Giant Yahtzee® scorecards to see who’s the yard Yahtzee® champ!
