Well Christmas has come and gone for another year and the new undies and naughties have been stashed away for later examination and exploration. However, Santa has done well this year as in the bottom of my stocking were these dice which have become a bit of a feature both in and out of the bedroom. A simple idea, which I hope we are making the most of. After throwing the dice you are presented with an action and a body part on which to perform the action. So how is this possible out of the bedroom you may well ask? Well it's more like the promise of what's to come...

We are a very competitive couple betting on this and that against each other, games of pool, bowling etc... Well the system for many years has simply been that the winner receives more than their share of oral favors. However, these dice have re-vamped this game and added an extra twist. Now, on agreement of the bet, the dice are rolled to decide on the prize. By the time we get to the bedroom, or at least somewhere safe and private, there are usually several wins on each side to be rewarded. It adds fantastic variety to foreplay as it is always different and is also good fun.

We have also used these dice in the bedroom on a lazy bank holiday afternoon, simply taking it in turns to roll and perform as stated. I would imagine that if this went on for too long it would become rather boring, so ensure the acts performed are well executed paving the way for the next step.

Now we have seen this kind of idea before but they've always been plastic. These dice are metal, which we think gives them a little more sophistication. It also means they don't get gathered up by accident and put away with the kids stuff! They are small enough to pop in a pocket, so easy to transport, but have gone missing in bed a couple of times!

So from what seemed like another stocking filler destined for the back of the cupboard, actually these dice have been a wonderful addition to our toy collection.

Still having lots of fun with these...although initial novelty value has warn off a little, they still add a little spice every now and again.
