I thought it would be fun to make a giant sized version for the yard with a ‘throw ‘n go’ option (I’m calling it Roll ‘n Go). The roll ‘n go version puts a fun twist on the game, and I kept it simple for my young kids. Each side of the dice (die) is a different color and there is a corresponding set of blocks in each color. They will roll and whatever color it lands on, they have to move a block of that color. You can totally play the traditional way too. A ‘2×3’ board that you buy is actually 1.5 inches thick, 2.5 inches wide and we can cut them 7.5 inches long…perfect!

The set comes complete with an attractive black carrying case with handles that makes it easy to store or transport the blocks to play Jenga games anywhere you like. You can play on the floor, on the ground, or on a playing table. One issue with latex is that it dries in a day, but doesn’t cure for a few weeks. The giant Jenga tower starts out at 2.5 and can climb up over 4 feet high as you stack the blocks. So the blocks want to stick to each other. You can coat them with a clear coat or wait until the paint has fully cured.
