Playing an educational word game with your child will not only help their spelling skills it will help with their vocabulary and extend their knowledge of words.
A simple word game, such as Learning Mates Look! See! Read!, provides your child with a fun, hands-on way to learn early reading words and simple sentence construction.
Once your child has demonstrate sight recognition of the word incorporated within the picture, remove the picture and test the child's memory of the word itself. Fun and educational play.
Then gradually as your child English skills develops move on to a more competitive and challenging educational word game such as Hangman.
Hangman will naturally develop important language skills like spelling, but also gives your child the enjoyment of competing in a fun and enjoyable way.
But remember when choosing an educational word game, keep in mind your child’s skill level. By buying a game that is to advanced, you can make them feel insecure and less confidence, and actually put your child behind.
If you feel your child is falling behind other children of their age, just remember that we all learn at different speeds and sometimes we need to step back and do an easier task to help propel them forward again.

The word game you'll flip over. The Flippit frog accompanies children as they earn points by spelling words. Using colorful alphabet cards, children choose a word consisting of 3 letters or more.

Okay, this is not a educational word game, but letters do make up words! And I think its really good. Here's a typical review of this educational word game
"This was an Amazon gift from the grandparents to my 4 year old. He LOVES this! It teaches your child the proper way to make their letters. (My 8 year old needs one LOL!)He loves tracing the dots and sliding the eraser. It cheers the kids on after they push the paw print. He will sneak to play with it when he is suppose to be sleeping. It is currently at show and tell at his pre-k, he loves it that much. One week of use and he is going all over the house writing the first letter of his name. He has shown off his letter writing skills at the Drs. office. He now writes his letters better than his big brother in 3rd grade!"
Coodju turn your next gathering into a hilarious, spellbinding free-for- all? All it takes is the laugh-inducing lexicon contained in Coodju. Teams of at least two players attempt to amass points by spelling the six words on one of the 504 cards according to instructions on the dice. Without pencil and paper, can you spell aloud "taut, lynch, fluff, tamper, paradox, and scorpion" in under a minute--vowels only? What about "octagon" and "laborious," skipping every other letter?
You'll soon learn that "g, u, e, z, a" spells "gauze" from the outside in. Fast and funky, Coodju is a party-time spelling bee with a honey of a sting--and, if there's any justice, a whole lot of buzz.
