Foam Dice

[Molly Pearson <mapearso@GTE.NET>]

Hi all,
I have an alternative for foam dice.
I made the happy/sad face die from a gift box.  It is the cube that many
mugs fit in.  I just  filled it with newspaper or whatever, to give it a
little heft, then made construction paper squares with the happy and sad
faces (green and red, of course), laminated them and attached them with tape
or glue.  I used narrow book tape to seal the edges.  It has lasted through
many games of glad book, sad book with no damage, and it cost nothing.  You
could even add some beans inside to make a satisfying noise as it
rolls--haven't tried this, though.
