Dice

Anyone know where I can get 6-sided dice numbered from 0-5? Pips preferably, but numbers if not.

This is too on-topic for this forum. You'd probably get more (or more relevant) answers in General.

This may be the first time that phrase has been uttered on these boards

I'll let a mod move it if need be.

best guess.... there was an old pop top game that did have dice similar to this. one blank face. and then 5 faces with numbers not pips... i just can't remember the name of it now. the dice are wooden if that helps... i have some.

Koplow I believe makes some. Also check teacher supply stores and educational children stores in the math sections.

This is precisely why I am looking for them, a game in my son's kindergarten class that teaches addition, but 0-10 would be so much better than 2-12.

That's correct: I have Koplow ones that go 0,1,2,3,4,5.

I'm not aware of any pipped 0-5 dice but it wouldn't surprise me if they existed. I may even have some.

Fenris, head over to the Dice Maniacs' Club and ask there. Kevin Cook, the world record holder for the largest dice collection, posts there quite a lot and he is as likely to know as anyone. He posts here too but not as much.

Hope that helps.

I have an 11-sided die but it's numbered 1 to 11, not 0 to 10.
