How To Prepare Your DIY Conversation Cubes

The printable Question Dice PDF covers all the questions that we have mentioned above plus a blank template for you to add any other questions you wish to cover.

These are some additional tips that may help you:

• When using the blank conversation cube, you may add several questions to each side of your blank cube:
  • move to the next question when one has already been answered
  • offer other options if a kid gets stuck and can’t think of an answer for any of the questions you prepared
• I’ve prepared the printable cubes in US letter size, but since it doesn’t have illustrations the printing quality is also good should you choose to go for a bigger printing size (the cubes looked great when I printed them on A3)
• I’ve printed my cubes on thicker paper. The conversation cubes in the video are printed on 300 GSM paper. I think less weight would have worked well too, but I would definitely not go for the lowest weight paper.
• I also secure the inner flaps with cello tape because I couldn’t keep this thick paper together only with glue.

Roll the Question Dice Game

The questioning cubes in the printable look gorgeous. But, just in case you don’t have time to go through all the cutting and gluing, I have also prepared an easy option that you can use with a numbered die.

It’s also included in your conversation cubes PDF.
