Most hyperlexic kids enjoy doing word puzzles or any kind of word game.
Seriously, if an activity involves some kind of letter play, they're all over it. It makes sense though given their love of letters. Their intense fascination, if you will.
You can even use games like this Remembrance Day word scramble using their beloved alphabet magnets. Simply spell out the scrambled word using their letters and see if they can rearrange it to figure out the correct Remembrance Day themed words. They'll love this!
Or you can just do the good old paper and pencil method and unscramble the Remembrance Day themed words that way.
Either way you play, you'll want to grab the free word scramble printable below.
