Introducing... a new series of activity books based on America's favorite word game!
SCRABBLE(R) Fun is a new series of hands-on activity books that introduce and reinforce the essential skills that children ages three to twelve need to succeed, from language arts and reading skills such as vocabulary, spelling, and dictionary usage, to math skills such as calculation, spatial relationships, and problem solving.
The SCRABBLE(R) Fun activity book series is comprised of three levels -- Preschool, Primary, and Intermediate -- ensuring that there is a level suitable for any child from three to twelve years old.
