Rory's Story Cubes + iPhone = Fun Learning

The premise of Rory's Story Cubes is simple: role the dice, or shake your iPhone, and create a story using each of the pictures on the dice. This was quite a challenge for Mason, given that he likes to keep his stories short and sweet. What he came up with was pretty good, considering his 8-year old (nearly) vocabulary...........


Once upon a time, the first rainbow appeared on the Earth. The strange thing was is that it was made of lightning and fire. The rainbow made a rainbow river with only swimming bees and flying fish. The fish always ends up on a house next to the river. The fish threatened to use the bees as keys so they could get inside. The bees said, "It's made of glued dice, so just take apart the dice."

It's a work in progress. Some of those prompts were more difficult, but overall, not too shabby.
