Q for ABC Wednesday
This card game is giggling entertainment. It is fun when played with several spellers and a couple of 'not'. An offshoot of rummy, the object of the game is to spell words from a dealt hand. Ideally, these would be real words properly spelled but they are often pretenders. Each game begins with a deal of 3 cards which is increased by one card each hand until a 10-card deal has been reached. Draw and discard forms the basic play until one player can empty his hand.
This link will take you to the http://Quiddler.com page where you can play a couple of online games (or more). Or you can order the game. Have fun!

That does look like a really cool game! And what a great one for the "Q" Day! Thanks for sharing, think I'm going to have to look for that one! Havd a good week!
I'm always looking for groovy new games! I'll check it out too:) It's sounds a bit like a game called Ziggity!
that was interesting...
must check it out!
thank you.
Well that might be a great game for my daughter and her family! She love spelling games, so do I! Great choice for Q! Thanks for your visit!
I need to check the meaning of the word.... I like your blog very much. I dream of being able to write haiku.
This looks like a good game. I love word games and Quiddler is a great word in itself.
You have introduced me to a new game - sounds interesting and fun, but I see that everyone must have the same native language.
Nice Q. Looks like a fun game. I will certainly visit their site to play an online game ;-)
Sounds a fun game, but I will always be the "not" spellers!!
QUITE interesting !
It sounds like a really great game to play with friends. Quite good fun...
Neat way to get the "Q" -- I would never have thought of it.
I've not heard of this Quiddler, but it does sound like fun and I do love word games.
Thank you for the link! Sounds like fun/ Tyra
That looks fun. Did you know a quiddler is one who dawdles? Recently used the word in a story. Beat that for coincidence.
Great Game!!! Thanks for reminding me of it.
never heard of it.... but i love word games so i bet it could really be fun!!!!
Always love word games!
Thanks for introducing me to a new one.
I did not know quiddler was one who dawdles. I would be a quiddler as I dawdle most of the time.

That sounds like a fun game. I bet you often win. ;-)
I've never heard of this game before, but it looks like fun!
This sounds like a fun game for those who love words. Great Q, and I learned a new game to try.
My kind of game! Thanks for the info.
Re: my quaking aspen-- I knew you'd recognize them. :O)
Never heard of this but sounds vaguely similar to a game I played years ago called Lexicon but Quiddler is a much better name, and so useful for Q.
This sounds fun. I grew up with Lexicon and loved it, and I'd like to try this. I'll go straight over to have a look.
Ooh! I HAVE to try this! My family plays Scrabble and rummy games all the time, so I bet we will have a blast with this one.
That game looks like fun! I wonder if you can play it with someone who's dyslexic - as one of our sons is!
Might be fun, might be too stressful. Might be interesting to find out!
Looks like fun! Never heard of this game before.
Looks like a cool game! I don't think I've seen it at the store here though.
