Joined Words: A word game for all ages
Solve three riddles. Guess the word!
I have often seen that there is no age for word games. People of all ages love to play them! Some like the ones that are easy, some like the ones that rack your brains! Word games are definitely helpful in building up ones vocabulary. Children in particular are a great audience for word games. As they are learning and eager to absorb new words, they quickly latch on to word games and no one feels guilty about letting them play these kind of games. Joined Words too was born out a lunch table conversation. It became an instant hit with my kids, their friends and even friends of their friends!
The game is simple. You take a compound word (a word that can be made up of two words like football, cardboard, snowman etc). Describe each of the words with a clue and give a clue for the full word too. Putting these three clues together, you need to guess the word. Try solving this for example.
First Word: A part of the body
Second Word: A steady rhythmic sound
Together: A really good looking guy!
Could you guess this? If you don’t want to know the answer, pause reading here!
Now I will explain the answer to this.
A part of the body: Heart
A steady rhythmic sound : Throb
A really good looking guy : Heartthrob
The answer to this riddle was Heartthrob! In all cases, there will be only one word which fits to all the three clues. If you liked this game, do try playing Joined Words Daily, a word game that will give you three new clues each day at this location.
