Detailed Description
Encourage people of all ages and differing abilities to enjoy interactive games together. Great for
inclusion, this is large scale and accessible. Perfect for those who are unable to hold and throw
traditional dice, and for those with visual impairments who cannot see the dots on a standard die
face.
Either press the red button on the front, or connect and activate your own switch to make the
central arrow spin.
Use in turn-taking to select random numbers instead of shaking one or two dice.
Also excellent for early maths skills – add, subtract or multiply the numbers from both dice
together, work out probabilities and use in matching games.
Especially valuable in small groups as the spinner can be stood up on a table (using the integral
fold-down legs) for everyone to see at once.
For the less able, activation helps understanding of choice as well as of cause and effect as well as
providing a multi-sensory reward – the spin is audible and produces a pleasant visual effect.
