Last night we reached a critical milestone in any family’s development: we introduced the kids to Boggle. And they loved it!
Kenan and Shana were both finding words at their level–Kenan could do one- and two-letter words and the odd three-letter word, and Shana could start at two-letter words but even found some four-letter words as well.
What words can you find in this partial board?

rattle and tanner are a couple of good ones. Much easier to play without that timer making us nervous!

I see TREAT, EATEN, and EAT ME if you’re allowing phrases…I’m hungry!

Where did you get the Super Boggle? We’ve tried to find it, but can only came up with regular (4×4) Boggle. We misjudged our timing and introduced it to Jordan a couple years ago. I think we ended up playing Go Fish that night.
“At” and “menaralate” are the only two words I can find.

I don’t remember where we got it. Maybe it’s the one we had as kids?
My big pointer on this board was “tattle”.
Bonus points to anyone who can define “menaralate” without looking it up online.

Menaralate: Verb, to make someone do somthing for you, as in “Dad, please menaralate my homework!”

Nice, Jordan! I think you’re ready for the Dictionary Game!

We found super boggle years ago off Ebay, and at the same time Aunt Debby sent us one; I think that’s where Nate’s may have come from. I enjoy playing through the years and watching the kids go through the stages of different minimum limits. At this point Nicole is at 3+, Tony 4+, and the rest of us 5+. It’s a challenge!
I see TATER and ALTER and ALTAR and LATER and LATTER.

Let me see, I found TEAT, TEAR, LATE, TEN, NET, and RAN. I found most of them in the top left corner!
