Boggle Jr. - Boggle Junior

Boggle Jr. is a delightful first word game for children, helping them to master the alphabet and spell simple words like map, lion, bus and sock.

Pros

Cons

Boggle Jr. has two levels of gameplay, one for very young children and one for slightly older children. In the first, the child sees a card with a three-letter word (e.g. "top") and a drawing of the object.

After they spell the word out loud, they look through the eight letter cubes to find ones which can be placed in the study plastic tray to spell the word. As players improve, four-letter words can be added to the mix. In the second game, the word is covered up, so players only see the drawing and must spell from memory.

Creative parents can come up with more ways to play with the cards and letter cubes, and it wouldn't be difficult to make new cards you can add to the game. Boogle Jr. is a great way to help teach words to young children.
