There are two games that I feel are very difficult for young people. I am a 69 yr. old "grammy" who bought herself a Yorkie when I was buying other Webkinz for my grandchildren (4). I wanted to learn what the site was all about. Very charming! All together they have about 50! My one grandson is so goo-goo-ga-ga and can't wait to get the heart frog. He has all the other frogs!

I am a former business education teacher who taught typing. Boy--is your Lunch Letters ever a challenge. You almost need to be a champion speed typist. How can children who have really never
properly mastered the keyboard achieve success? Very frustrating! Could it be that they have better eyesight than I? I believe it is too difficult.

Another peeve--Quizzy's Word Challenge. I have formed words that I know are actual words but they were not accepted. I checked "Webster". Also, I was on Level 7 and almost finished when I was cut off--not fair! Game needs to be updated to include more words that are accepted and correct. I am not referring to "swear" words--that I can understand. YOU TELL ME HOW TO FORM WORDS WHEN YOU GET 3 R'S, 3 L'S 2 Z'S few G's AND MAYBE ONE VOWEL. Impossible. I know the higher levels should be more difficult--but come on now--they require higher scores to succeed and if the letters to select from are so limited, what is one supposed to do? That center square is the killer!
