Wordplay For Kids Board Game
Think you can come up with a girl's name containing the letters "Q" and  "Y" in 60 seconds? Or a food or drink using "H" and "J"? There will truly be  times when Wordplay for Kids will be anything but child's play. Designed for  players 6 to 12 years, this combo of word building and racing to the finish line  invites youngsters to come up with the longest word they can in order to gain  the most spaces on the board. The spinner selects the two letters that must  appear in the word, the die roll selects the category the word must fit. The  enclosed rules are simple and, with one exception, easy to understand (you may  want to adopt a house rule clarifying whether or not the word must begin with  one of the two spun letters, or merely contain it). And it'll probably take only  one fight between the player who composed "Patty" and the "Patricia-Elizabeth"  wordsmith, before you'll want to outlaw the use of hyphens.
