While my oldest wasn't into car logos like many hyperlexic kids were as preschoolers, he was really into traffic lights and drawing intersections. He used to spend hours drawing roads and lights when he was little and occasionally he still does.
There are also lots of kids, autistic or not, who love different types of vehicles and have a transportation themed special interest beyond car logos. Maybe they just really like construction vehicles or boats or trains...
Maybe you have a car loving kid yourself. Or maybe you just want a quick and easy activity for a transportation unit at school.
Whatever the reason may be, this free printable transportation word scramble is a great little activity for kids.
Why Word Scramble Games are Good for Kids
Word scramble games are a great way for kids to work on vocabulary, spelling, language skills, working memory, problem-solving skills, writing, and so much more! There's a wide range of skills you could target here. Just get creative.
You can use free printable word scramble games like this one at home, in the classroom, or even on the road. Or you could use them in Zoom meetings for online learning (tips on how to do so here). They'd even make a great rainy day activity too!
Also, if you've been looking for other ideas on how to use your hyperlexic child's interests in letters, then word scramble games are a great fit. They definitely build off of a hyperlexic child's interest in letters. I mean the game is literally just a bunch of letters. Besides, using your hyperlexic child's interest to teach new skills is definitely something you should be doing - and something you'll hear me say a lot around here!
