Board games with just dice and counters?

Hi,
My 5 and 7 year old like to play games together like snakes and ladders or the games in the cbeebies magazine where you just need a dice and 2 counters.
I want to buy them a few for Christmas but I'm not sure what those types of games are called so my Google searches aren't bringing what I'm looking for.
I dont want ones with cards or lots of pieces because they just get lost.

Does anyone know of any or what I should search for?

Ludo or frustration?

Chad Valley used to do a box of games like this, and possibly tesco or asda own brand games as they are usually simple.

Not what you are asking by Skyjo card game has gone down a storm with mine at that age. It's very simple.

I saw this book at my work. Looked great had lots of different board games and very little chance of loosing bits.

Ludo or frustration?
Frustration particularly good because you can’t even lose the dice.

@Ricekrispie22 Thank you so much! I've just ordered it.
They will LOVE that because they love Toy Story.

We already have frustration and they do love that one.
They never seemed to get on with Ludo though.
