Ideal 4 Way Spelldown
(Ideal/Alex $23.99)
A new/old twist on a classic game. You probably played this game years ago with wooden flip down letters on all four sides of the playing board. Now, there’s a pop-a-matic style popper in the middle of the board that shows two letters that you have to use with extra letters you flip to make a word. Players must announce the word and spell it before they flip the levers. Winner is the first to flip all the letter levers on their side of the board. This is a fun game for solo or 2, 3, or 4 players. Older players will be challenged to create four, five and six letter words. The box says ages 6 and up, we think this is a better bet for 7 and up, up, up.
Ages: Early school, Tweens
