My cousins Alexandra and Connor, 10 and 6, have been huge fans of the game Bananagrams since they first learned to read. For years they’ve played the tile spelling game at school and at the kitchen table, so imagine their joy upon discovering that their favorite word game is now portable! Bananagrams for Kids is perfect for car rides, restaurants, waiting rooms…anywhere they can take their brains and a pencil.
And you can bet that I broke out my own copies of Bananagrams! and More Bananagrams! for the five-hour bus ride from New York to Boston through Friday afternoon’s holiday rush hour traffic. I kid you not, working the puzzles made the trip not only bearable, but FUN (and my seatmate jealous)! Sure, burgers are more typical Independence Day fare, but around here we’re always in the mood for bananas.
