My niece is 10 years old, i believe this game is very good for her that was why i personally downloaded it for her to play in her leisure time instead of playing game that wont help her academically and this game has really helped her spellings skill.Word games require critical thinking skills that could stimulate the brain most time i see her pay great attention to know how to solve the puzzles.

me and my niece play word game

At first she did not like the game because she had difficulty learning the game so i took it upon myself to sacrifice my time and help her under the game and now this game is her favorite.

Its always fun playing this game with her because she loves to play i help her with some that seems hard by giving hint, i make it a fun activity during this time some kids do not realize that learning is happening or that they are actually improving their language and that is the part i like she give her attention willing which make the learning easy.
