Pros: A great family game Cons: Small pieces, not for the very young
Scrabble very truly bridges the generation gaps in my family. After a Sunday dinner, it is very enjoyable from relatives of all ages to sit around the Scrabble board and use their respective vocabularies to impress the others. This game can not be...

Pros: Great family game. Children can reinforce spelling skills. Cons: Tiles can get lost.
Our family has played Scrabble for years. We first started out when my son was about 6 years old. We would play a game with my husband and son on one team and me on the other. As he got older, we played as three separate teams. When my daughter...

Pros: Fun for everyone, young and old. Cons: Might make you pull your hair out of your head,
Next to Monopoly and checkers, I'd have to say Scrabble is my all-time favorite board game. You never grow tired of it and it's challenging.
Unfortunately, I'm not particularly good at it and I thought I would be because of the kind of work I...

Pros: easy and educational Cons: need a good dictionary
I remember playing scrabble with my parents when I was in grade school. We always had a good laugh and I ended up learning new words. To this day I have a wonderful grasp of words and their meanings. Some have described my language as colorful (in a good...

Pros: well thought out Cons: boring, not a game, large vocab needed
First of all I would like to say that although I dislike the game, it was very well thought out. I dislike it because: it takes forever, you need a large vocab, and the winner is chosen before you begin.
The idea
The idea is that...

Pros: fun, educational Cons: easy to lose the tiles
This has been my favorite game for some time now. My mother used to play it with me when I was younger... but we mostly used the tiles to make words, we didn't play by any rules, just whoever ran out of tiles first won. It was a fantastic way for me to...

Pros: easy to play Cons: none
Our family is not too big on "family time" but when my mom pulls out Scrabble watch out! The whole family sits down and attemps to spell words we have no clue what they mean! Although your not supposed to use the book to look up words, if we...

Pros: Fun, educational, great family activity Cons: I honestly cannot think of any
After many years of playing this game I fully recommend it to anyone. I have played Scrabble against family and friends since I was a child and I have no doubt I'll be playing and enjoying Scrabble at a ripe old age.
Scrabble is probably the...

Pros: builds knowledge of words Cons: requires thinking

Pros: lots of fun Cons: ?
How many of us played this game as a child? I still have the original game (can you tell I'm a pack rat?) and we still play it--only now I play with my children instead of with my siblings. It was fun then and it's fun now. There's only one catch--you...

Scrabble! A timeless tradition for families. This game has been around for as long as I can remember. I can remember as a child, spending time with my family and friends playing scrabble. We would breakout a board game once or twice a week, and...
