What You’ll Need
- 12 dice (I love this dice set to have for a large number of games)
--

How to Play
1. Arrange 10 dice in a line.
2. Take turns sliding one die into the dice line and using a second die to go through the opening created by the first.
3. If a player successfully slides the second die through the sliced line without touching other dice, she keeps two dice it went between.
4. The player with the most dice wins.
--
Adaptations
1. Rather than aligning the dice every turn, leave them in place after each slide.
--
2. Once someone breaks the dice line, all players take a turn trying to slide a die through it.
--
3. Each player uses their own set of 10 dice and races against the others.

Conversation Starter
We often wait for opportunities to open their door for us before we move forward. But we usually need to take action at every step along the way to createopportunities instead. What opportunities are waiting for you to slide the door open on them?
