This game is for you to play against a friend. You'll need two
dice. You can play on the interactive version below, or you
could print off a paper version in
colour or
black and white . If
you play on paper, you'll need a counter to be the spider
too.
Decide who is the sunshine and who is the rain - sunshine moves
the spider up the drain pipe and rain moves the spider
down.
Start by playing with one dice.
Take it in turns to throw
the dice and move the spider that number of spaces up (if you
are sunshine) or down (if you are rain).
If the spider gets right to the top of the pipe, sunshine wins.
If it gets to the bottom, rain wins.
Next, try a more interesting version of the game. This time,
use two dice. When it is your turn to throw, you can decide
which dice number to use. In this game, you must land exactly
on the end of the drain pipe to win.
Perhaps you can make up your own version of the game? Please
send in your ideas and other people can try them out.
