Marbles Gift Wrap

 

Marbles offers gift wrapping on this brainy product for only $1!
We haven’t lost our minds, we just know how nice it is to avoid those dull scissors and tape that won’t tear. To add gift wrapping to your order, just select the “yes” button under the “add gift wrap” section.

“Fun for the whole family” doesn’t do this awarding-winning word game justice. So how does “fantastic fun for generations of wordsmiths, game freaks and spelling bee champs in training,” sound? Much better, we think. In Bananagrams, players race to be the first to use all their tiles in connecting and intersecting words. Since everyone plays at the same time and speed matters more than word length, one hand can be played is as little as five minutes. Bananagrams comes in a handy banana-shaped pouch, making it a perfect game for travel.

Brain Health Expert Says:

"A great game for improving word skills and word retrieval. Recommended to anyone looking to improve spelling, word skills and sequencing. " -Psychologist

How to Play:

Tiles are placed on the table face-down and shuffled. Each player gets an equal number of letter tiles (21 tiles for 2-4 players, 15 tiles for 5-6 players, and 11 tiles for 7 or more players) A pool of unused tiles stays within reach of all of the players. Someone says "Split", and everyone flips over their tiles and begins to build their own collection of words that are connected together. There is no taking turns - it's everyone for themselves! Players can rearrange their tiles however they want during the game. If a player uses all of their letter tiles, they say "Peel", at which point everyone has to take a tile from the common pool of unused letters. Anyone who wants to exchange a letter can say "Dump", and trade their unwanted tile in for three new ones.

How to Win:

When there are fewer tiles in the pool than there are players, and someone uses up all of their letters, they say "Bananas" and if all of their words are found to be legitimate, they are the winner.
