I found this a nice inspiration for those of us with kids and the little tradition this could spark which I think would be super healthy for the kids and also the relationship for when they are adults.

I think this is a great idea. However beware of what you are getting yourself into. I'm stuck playing UNO, Dobble and this mole dice game with my 3 year old daughter for hours on end. It doesn't get old for her but it is starting to get a bit stale after a few months of playing for me.

To be fair, that just describes about any activity with a toddler.

Is 3 years old still a toddler? Also from my experience she will lose interest in most other acitivies after 20 minutes at most.

Depends on definition, but I admit I use the term liberally for small children (not a native speaker).

Also not a native speaker here. I was just curious as I always picture smaller kids when I hear toddler. Thanks for the Wiki link!
