ABSTRACT:
A spinner device which is designed for use in a game that tests both the imagination and association of one or more players in the course of building a vocabulary. The spinner device is characterized by a frame or stand designed to pivotally receive a disc, wherein the disc is manually pivoted with respect to the frame to indicate a letter of the alphabet at random. An hourglass is also provided, in order to provide a means for timing the game sequences. When a letter of the alphabet is selected at random by spinning the disc, the hourglass is rotated to begin a game sequence and a player attempts to enunciate the largest number of words of which he is capable, beginning with the designated letter of the alphabet during the time sequence as determined by the hourglass.
