Parcheesi Math

Still enjoying our summer, and I'm not ready to start our curriculum for a little while.  But Rose needs a way to know how many hops her men need to make on the board!  We count the numbers on the dice and then write a simple equation.  Rose traces the numbers.  Did you know that 1 + 3 is the same as 3 +1?  So Rose gets a choice on which equation to trace.  I won this game because I rolled quite a few double sixes.  :)

Some people up the street were throwing this table away. It was in pretty bad shape and one of the legs was off. I've glued the leg back...
