School Age Kid Toy Top Pick: Bananagrams

Follow me on:

Got five minutes? Then you have plenty of time to whip up some Bananagrams (compare prices), a fast-paced game where the object is to make as many words in crossword puzzle as fast as you can. All you need to play is a quick mind and a table to set up.

This game is a great way to challenge older kids on their spelling and vocabulary while they have fun. You play somewhat independently and each game goes fast, making it perfect for when you are on the go -- waiting for dinner at a restaurant, at the doctor's office, even in the car.

The best part? Yelling "BANANAS!" when you are finished!

What is your favorite portable game?
