Mystery word: find the letters of the word
Empty boxes, an alphabet underneath. The children suggest a letter: if it is in the word, it takes its place. The picture stays hidden until the last letter, or helps with guessing from the start. Hangman without the gallows.

Frequently asked questions
Do you need to be able to read?
No: the child names letters they know, and sees straight away whether they are in the word. With the picture visible, they guess the word and look for its letters.
A wrong letter, what happens?
It is marked on the alphabet, nothing more. No hangman and no countdown: you carry on until the last letter.
