Here's a blast from the past to captivate wordsmiths and puzzle fans alike. First developed in 1882 as an educational toy, the intriguing word wheel has been out of production for generations. This all-new wooden version brings the original paper wheel back to life in a handsome design that's as charming to look at as it is challenging to play. Each wheel contains the alphabet A–Z in order. Arrange the wheels so at least two four-letter words appear at the same time. It may seem easy, but it's surprisingly difficult, with 17,576 possible unique positions of the wheels that will show more than 456,000 four-letter combinations. Use any word that can be found in a standard English dictionary, but proper names, abbreviations, prefixes, and more are off-limits. A spelling game, word search, and addictive brainteaser in one, the wheel also makes a fascinating tool for teachers of vocabulary and language skills. Laser-cut and hand-assembled in Florida.
