Product Details

Compete against Buzz, the bee, in these interactive spelling bee activities. In Spelling Bee, points are earned for correct spellings, and the player with the highest score at the end of ten words is the winner. Do you want the contest to be easy, a little hard, or a real challenge? In an easy game, Buzz will be slow on his buzzer; for a real challenge, Buzz will be quick to buzz. You can even set the game for two players and compete against your fellow classmates.
