What’s Included in This Ghost Roll and Draw Printable

The PDF includes everything you need to play, including the die itself.

• Page 1 lists the materials needed and five simple steps: prepare the dice, roll, draw, color and decorate, then show and tell.
• A color-coded die template on page 1 can be cut, folded, and glued or taped together for rolling.
• Page 2 is the Roll and Draw a Ghost chart, with six colored dice across the top matching the colors on the die template.
• The chart includes six rows to roll for: head, body, lower body, face, mouth, and extras such as a bow, glasses, a witch hat, or a cowboy hat.
• Page 3 has four “My Ghost” drawing frames, with the first showing a completed example ghost wearing glasses.
• Page 4 provides four more blank “My Ghost” frames, with dashed lines for cutting the frames apart.

Ghost Roll and Draw Skills This Activity Supports

Rolling, matching, and drawing each ghost part builds several foundational skills.

• visual motor skills
• visual discrimination
• fine motor skills
• scissor skills
• visual spatial skills
• bilateral coordination
• number recognition

Copying each curve and face from the chart strengthens the eye-hand connection children need for letter formation and neat handwriting. Placing the head, body, and features in the right spots challenges visual spatial awareness. Cutting and folding the die adds hands-on practice with bilateral coordination.

How to Use This Ghost Roll and Draw Activity

This printable fits easily into a busy fall schedule.

• Occupational therapy sessions targeting visual motor integration and drawing skills
• Classroom fine motor centers, early finishers, or indoor recess
• Halloween parties as a low prep game for small groups
• Home use as a family drawing challenge
• Speech or social groups using the show and tell step to describe each ghost

Tips and Variations

For younger children, assemble the die ahead of time and roll only for the head, body, and face. You can also use a standard die and point to the matching color column together.

For an added challenge, have children roll for every row and describe their ghost using complete sentences during show and tell. Older students can write a short story about their ghost on the back of the page.

Laminate the chart and slide the drawing frames into sheet protectors for dry-erase practice. Groups can take turns rolling and compare how different their ghosts turn out.
