Bananagrams

A fast, tile-based word game for two or more players that needs no board, pencil or paper. Players race to arrange their letter tiles into their own connecting crossword grid, rearranging as they go, and a single round can be over in about five minutes. Builds spelling, quick thinking and vocabulary, and packs up small for travel. Best from around five years.
