Fifty
Fifty is one of the fun dice games for kids and cool games for kids.
It's all about doubles! That's all that counts, so forget about singles!
2 or more players
Ages: 5 and up
Need pencil, paper, dice
The goal is to roll doubles and get to 50 points.
Begin with each player rolling one die. The player with the highest number goes first. She throws both dice on the table.
If she gets 2 of a kind, she gets points. If no 2 of a kind, no points are given.
Play continues with each player taking a turn rolling the dice.
The winner is the player who reaches 50 points first.
Double 1's, 2's, 4's, and 5's are worth 5 points.
Double 6's receive 25 points.
Double 3's are what players want to avoid. They wipe out the player's score to 0, and she has to start over.
This very fun game is unpredictable! A player can be close to 50 points and then roll two 3's, and his score goes back to 0!
Other players can be behind in the game and roll two 6's, get 25 points, and be right back in the game!
And, if you roll two 6's two times in a row, you've reached 50 points!
You may also go 2, 3 or 4 turns without rolling any doubles at all! Hang in there, you'll get them!
