Build a dropper dice tower, check it's fair, then race on a giant board.
A tower that rolls the dice for you. Then a giant board with ladders up and slides down. Race to 36.

What you’ll build
Build a tall tower with a dropper that rolls a random wool colour down a glass tube. Check whether your dice is really fair by rolling and tallying, then build a giant board with ladders and water slides and race to the finish.
Finish line: Your dice tower rolls fairly, your tally proves it, and someone has won the race on your giant board.
Bonus challenge: Build a second tower with all 9 slots full for a 9-sided dice, then invent a new board game rule that only works with 9 sides.
You’ll need
- A dropper
- Six colours of wool
- Glass
- A button
- Ladders
- Water buckets
You choose
- My dice tower's name
- My colour for each number 1–6
- My bet: how many 6s in 30 rolls
Stuck?
- Getting extra colours? Leave the dropper's spare slots empty: it picks from every filled slot.
- Numbers not even after 30 rolls? That's normal for small samples. Fair doesn't mean perfectly even.
- Hang a sign with the colour-to-number key so nobody argues mid-game.
