HANG SPIDER 

Play this game with your friends (a variation of Hangman).  Draw a spider web
(a group of wiggly lines) at the top of the paper.  Write the vowels 'a, 
e, i, o, u" off to the side.  Then draw a line for each letter in the word.

As a letter is guessed, write it next to the spider web.  Letters in your word
are written on the correct line.  Letters not in the word add a part to the
spider:  first a head, then a fat body, then 4 legs on each side, then two
eyes and finally a smile.  If the spider is finished before the word is
guessed, the spider (you) wins!  If your friend guesses the word first, he/she
wins.  
(You could tell your friend how many vowels in the word.)


PUZZLE WORDS 

You and a friend each write a word on a piece of paper and then cut the
letters apart.  Race to see who can put the word together first.
