Scrabble variants variant for children five to seven years of age on one side and a version for older children aged seven to ten on the other. Two to four players can take part in a game. In the simpler version, young players connect letters with words on the game board.

If the board is flipped, words must be constructed independently, as they are in adult Scrabble. This game is a cross between Othello and Scrabble
