Bananagrams

A-Peeling Word-Building Fun

Bananagrams is the high-energy, word-building game that gets everyone spelling, thinking, and racing to the finish! With no need for paper, pens or game boards, this compact and colourful game invites players to create their own crossword grids using letter tiles-perfect for literacy-rich learning environments and quick set-up classroom games.

Simply unzip the banana pouch, scatter the tiles, and let the letter race begin! Build words, rearrange your grid and think ahead to stay in the game. The first player to use all their tiles shouts "BANANAS!" -but only correct words will win the round.Â
