Tot School- Word Fun with Boggle Jr.
We brought out Boggle Jr. for the first time last week! (found at a thrift store for $2) Lil’ Red wanted nothing to do with the 3 letter words since there are 4 spaces! So instead of starting with 3 letter words and building to 4 letter words we dove right in with 4 letter words. I found the correct letters for him, but laid them out in a random fashion on Lil’ Red’s tray!
He kept asking for more and more “games”. He could tell me most of the letters and knew all of the pictures. I was very impressed since we had never played Boggle Jr. before. I am glad he stuck with it for quite some time before he was done. He is such a good little learner!
I made sure to keep track of the letters he knew without hesitation versus the ones he was not sure of. I was shocked at some of the letters he DID know. A few he got mixed up like “M” and “W” but that is to be expected at this age. (He will be 3 years the end of April.) I am sure we will be bringing out Boggle Jr. at least once a week until he gets bored with it!

Boggle is one of our family favorites! I didn’t know there was a Boggle Junior! I think you have a scholar on your hands!
Okay I will be watching for that at our Goodwill!
How fun! I didn’t even know they made a boggle junior. Learning is so much more fun when it’s a game
Cynthia,
Yes, I think we do. Being the third child has it’s advantages for sure and homeschooling just keeps boosting his IQ as well.
