Excellerations® SEL Dice: Developing Decision-Making Skills

Ages 3+ / Grades PreK+

Help children build lifelong social-emotional strategies for responsible decision-making! Empower children to make responsible decisions with this fun and engaging 12-sided (dodecahedron) activity die that offers up kid-friendly, age-appropriate choices. This easy to grasp 6.75” diameter die is made of dense EVA foam that’s super safe and is illustrated with simple drawings and easy to understand choices. This sensory, hands-on, SEL teaching tool provides practice of strategies that build lifelong interpersonal skills, independence, self-confidence, and adaptability. Some of the choices on this die include “Read about a dinosaur or a unicorn”, “Put on a puppet show or watch the show”, “Wear short sleeves or a coat”, and “Swings, Slide, or Sandbox?” Use this die in a lesson to model the many ways that these decisions could be made when they arise. An adult may also model the thinking and additional information that may be needed when faced with these choices. This tool is a great addition for any classroom or home, especially those with young children who may need a little assistance in learning how to make good choices and responsible decisions.
