🪲 How a Beetle Drive Works
Players roll a dice and draw different parts of a beetle (body, head, legs, eyes and antennae) as the numbers come up. You must roll a 6 to start your beetle by drawing the body, then continue rolling to add the other parts. The first person to complete their beetle wins that round — it’s simple, lively, and great fun!
Bring friends, bring family, and join us for a fun-filled evening while helping the PTFA raise vital funds for our school 🐞
