    Fun!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kids and I loved this game! It was a blast to play and easy. We love the banana packaging too! There are definitely some limitations to the word choices you can make since there are only one or 2 of certain letters, but that's okay!

    Love me some bananas!!!!!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ BANANAGRAMS CLASSIC – the game that convinced my family I can spell… kinda I grabbed Bananagrams Classic on a whim, and honestly? Peak family chaos. Imagine Scrabble… but caffeinated… and inside a banana. 🍌 First of all, the packaging alone deserves an award. Whoever decided “Let’s put 144 letters inside a banana pouch” is either a genius or hasn’t slept since 2008. Possibly both. Gameplay is simple: Dump the tiles. Panic. Try to form words before your kids create “qxxzl” and insist it’s a “dragon name.” 🐉 My competitive side came out HARD. I caught myself yelling “PEEL!” like I was calling numbers at a bingo hall. My spouse accused me of making up words, which, okay… maybe “snarple” isn’t real but it felt right. Bonus: It’s actually educational. My 7-year-old learned new words. My adult siblings learned they can’t spell. My dog learned not to sit near flying letter tiles. Perfect for: ✔️ Family game night ✔️ Vacations ✔️ People who love Scrabble but hate rules ✔️ Anyone who wants to yell fruit-themed commands at loved ones 10/10 would peel again. 🍌✨

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were so excited to get a new game. The bananagrams grams was so much fun for them to play. It is also a great way to help kids learn spelling words correct.

    Fun for kids with some spelling skill

    This is a fun game for my 11 year old granddaughter & I to play. Stretches her spelling & vocabulary too. (No, that’s not how it’s spelled & that’s not a word)
