 Gnu game "gnu" reading help! May 07, 2007
By C. Vanderwoude
"Impassioned book lover"
This is a great game for new readers and for readers who need some extra help and practice. As a retired teacher and now a tutor, I'm using this with a second grader who is having trouble with reading. She really enjoys this game and is getting much better at spelling short words, as well as recognizing longer words because of the skills she is learning with this game. I'd recommend this to anyone with a young reader! P.S. It can also be used with older readers just as a fun game by having a time limit to make a certain amount of words.

 Great Game, We Love It But It Could Have More Possiblities Mar 02, 2008
By Barb Mechalke
My daughter is in Kindergarten and we have had lots of fun with this game. Sometimes I think everything is in the timing... and with this game the timing was just right. We recently got this as a gift and my daughter and I have played it several times. We make up our own rules...and she loved it. We don't play competitively, we just work at making words.
I pull out several cards that will make a word then she makes the words, sounds them out and decides which word she likes better. For her the fun was making the words, not "winning".
She's not a game kid, we have lots of the classic games that we gave her as gifts and her three year old brother has played them more than she has. But this one we've come back to again and again, today she said "Wahoo gnu".
The only criticism I have is that they could have created a lot more word possibilities with the word cards.

skill builder Sep 15, 2007
By Gayle Lai
"Nanna"
It was easy for me to adapt the rules to the needs of my 5 year old grandson.... possibilities are endless but an encouraging adult is needed to help keep a good pace and keep young ones encouraged and not overwhelmed. It's really an excellent skill builder.

Great for new readers May 14, 2007
By Musical mom
This game is a great game for teaching phonics and new words. They love being able to choose the letters, and a great educational activity.

Great Learning Game Nov 24, 2010
By Iowa Dad
As my 5 year old knew his letters well, but couldn't get the letters together to make words yet, I thought this would help. It did the trick and my son is starting to put letters together to make words. This game provides a bridge for a child to start putting letters together that's fun and not overly daunting. I would recommend if your child knows his/her letters well, and ready to start formulating words. Very nice materials that are durable and I hope to use with my younger child.
