Pros: Hours of fun, increases your vocabulary, challenges your mind. Cons: If only there were more letters...
Scrabble is a game that never gets boring. Each time you play it the outcome is different and you always learn something new. Each letter will get you a certain amount of points when played and the object is to play the highest scoring, best strategic...

Pros: enhances skills Cons: letter tiles could get lost
Scrabble is another one of those wonderful games that people play as they are growing up and I am no exception. I played this game with my sister and the little neighbor boy who lived across the street from us. That little boy could come up with some...

Pros: Educational, challenging, and competitive. Cons: It sucks when someone dumb wins. :)
My mission in life is to finally beat my friend, Matt, an English professor (aka Monsieur Ph.D.). He used the word "hart." I chuckled and rolled my eyes, suspecting him of dishonesty. I challenged him. He seemed to waver, seemed to doubt his own...

Pros: Educational, great game for family game night. Cons: lots of little pieces to keep up with
I was first introduced to the game scrabble as a young teenager. Being too young to go on a real date, my parents would allow boys [my so called dates] to come to the house. One of our favorite things to do was sit at the dining room table with mom and...

Pros: Lots of fun Cons: Long game
Scrabble. What do you think of when you hear that name? Do you think of the smartest, most well-read person you know? A large vocabulary is certainly helpful at this game, but not as helpful as a lot of people think.
Anybody can play this...

Pros: increases vocabulary Cons: frustrating when don't have right letters
I LOVE SCRABBLE! Scrabble is an entertaining game. It is challenging, educational, and sometimes nerve wracking when you just can't find any word to create with your letters.
Scrabble is a board game with squares where tiles are place with...

Pros: Excellent Game; Challenging, Creative, Inventive, Fun; Nearly Everyone Knows How to Play or Can Learn in Two Minutes Cons: Takes a Long Time to Play a Full Game; Requires at Least Moderately Broad Vocabulary
Few board games command the almost universal appreciation that Scrabble does. There are versions of Scrabble in languages ranging from Hebrew to French; all over the world, families and friends sit together for hours puzzling over how to fit odd words...

Pros: Great game, learn new words Cons: None
Scrabble is the ultimate game of words. As classic board games go, I would rate Scrabble second only to Monopoly, which says a lot. I won't bother explaining how to play, because virtually everyone will know that. The point is, although your...

Pros: Cheap to buy in store, tons of fun without the tv or computer! Cons: Lots of letters to lose if little ones get into it!
Once a week(usually Friday nights)my husband, myself and my twin 6 year old girls sit down at the living room table, turn of the tv, munch away on popcorn and apple juice, and play one of many rousing games. Sometimes we play Uno, Candyland, or Crazy...

Pros: Very inexpensive game that generally everyone knows how to play Cons: Letter tiles are easy to lose.
One night, my husband and I just got sick of T.V. We had the idea to play Scrabble. So I got in the car and went down to WalMart and bought us a game of Scrabble, for $9.96. It turned out that we had a lot more fun that night playing Scrabble than...

Pros: lots of fun Cons: spelling a word with q and z
I would hope that my being a twenty year vet to the game scrabble would allow me to give an accurate and positive review of the game. Well here goes I was given the game in 1978 and wasn't quite sure why,I was given the game scrabble, could it be I...

Pros: Excellent learning game Cons: Those tiles can get lost
Scrabble is an old favorite of mine. It's easy to play, and quick to clean up - long as the layers don't toss the tiles at each other!
It's a good tool for vocabulary and spelling drills for grade school children. If you can get the players...

Pros: easy to play, enjoyable Cons: many small pieces
I played Scrabble when I was in grade school. In fact, that's when my obssession started ! LOL I *love* this game. I play often with my husband. We do not keep score though. We just play till we run out of tiles. It is mentally-challenging. I...

Pros: A simple but fun classic game that brings hours of enjoyment Cons: Tiles don't always stay in place and are somewhat easily lost
Scrabble has been one of my favorite games as far back as I can remember. My brother and I spent many a rainy afternoon playing it, and my college roommate and I have gotten a lot of use out the game as well. What a way to tell a true classic!

Pros: Builds Vocabulary and Spelling Ability Cons: Time consuming
Growing up I was not the greatest student when it came to spelling, so to make it fun my mother pulled out her old Scrabble Board. She taught me how to play and at least once a week I would sit down with my mother and older sister to play a game. They...
