To use this as a playdough mat:
Children can simply use the mat to build their own snowman, referring to the various parts as prompts. They can challenge themselves by rolling the dice, trying to complete the entire snowman on their own. This is fun as a quiet activity, and practices number recognition on dice with sensory play.
To use this as a collaborative game:
Playing collaborative games is great for turn-taking practice and team work. Working together, players can take turns rolling a dice and building a piece of the snowman.

Each player gets their own snowman playdough mat. Players take turns rolling the dice and adding to their mat. If the dice lands on a number previously rolled, that player loses their turn and the next player continues play. The first player to complete their snowman wins!
