My mother-in-law always finds the coolest things, Bananagrams is no exception. Yesterday afternoon Morgan and I played a round and while she’s not quite “old enough” we still had a great time. It’s recommended for ages 7-97 but is a great way to provoke the mind of a 5 year-old.
She didn’t quite grasp the “top to bottom” aspect of spelling and intersecting {although I do see “name” in there} but nonetheless she did a fabulous job and I loved watching her wheels turn.
The rules are simple and the game is very fun, calling for words to be shouted like “peel”, “split”, “bunch” and “bananas”. We ate 4 s’mores granola bars and had a wonderful time spelling words together. Then I had to go start a fire… it’s that time of year again!
Banagrams can be found HERE {for a little less} on Amazon and they also have Pairs in Pears or Appletters both of which look like they’re as much fun as the Bananagrams!
Thanks for your comments on the last post!
Happy Friday!
Have a great weekend!
Peace out!
