Hangman

Melissa & Doug Travel Hangman
$12.99
I bought this for our three kids ages 7, 8 and 9 to play in the car travelling on vacation this past summer. It's the traditional hangman game from our youth but with only one removable (loseable) piece...the dry erase pen! It's colorful, durable and fun! I even played it with our youngest while cooking dinner...how much better can it get?

Scratch & Solve Hangman #1 (Scratch & Solve Series) (Bk. 1)
$5.95
My 11-year old loves these puizzles and has been playing them for at least 5 years. They're challenging and fun to scratch off.

Scratch & Solve Hangman #2 (Scratch & Solve Series) (Bk. 2)
$5.95
I purchased a copy of Hangman #2 from a local store and to my dismay this particular copy doesn't scratch off. I used a dime and scratched a hole in the page. I then used a nickel but that just made the gray dots, shining silver dots. I finally moved on to a pencil eraser which did work but one puzzle used the entire eraser and it took quite a bit of elbow grease to even get that to work. My daughter was very frustrated to say the least. From other reviews it appears that others have had a good experience with some of these books. Could the problem be that these books are printed in China? Perhaps the gray dots on some copies are actually lead based paint dots rather than the usual latex ink! What gives?
