Bananagrams is a game that can help you expand your vocabulary skills and make you proficient at thinking of better words. This game is great for traveling or playing with the family. Rena Nathanson developed it, and its name is appropriate because it can drive you bananas. Small tiles, similar to the ones used in Scrabble, come in a pack shaped like a banana. The object of the game is to use all of the tiles before your opponent to make words. The tiles must stay connected, and when you use all of your letters, you yell out “peel.” This game is a fun way to test your vocabulary skills.
