The Coloured Die is the prototypical roll-and move game for children, and is ideal for actually introducing the roll-and move mechanic, turn-taking, and pattern recognition. Each player has four coloured figurines which enter on a start space, and proceed around the track according to the image on the multi-coloured die which they roll. Once a figurine has circled the track, it enters the end-spaces, and the first player to have all their pieces in the finish area wins.

The board is completely independent of language and number indications, and given the age range suggested of 2-4 years, the design is quite suitable for a child's first roll-and move game.
