10 Awesome Words For Bananagrams

scrabble-62837_1280.jpgBananagrams is kind of like Scrabble: you race against other players to get rid of your letter tiles by making words.  But do you ever feel like a cheat when you find yourself using the same words over and over again or making a lot of three-letter words? Well, I do, and as a result I tend to look for crazy words even if it takes extra time, just because it’s fun! Here are some of my favorites that I’ve found and that I suggest to any of you Bananagrams or Scrabble players if you’re in a word rut:

Pilfer

Regicide

Lexicon

Sphinx

Squid

Fastidious

Sanitize

Grenade

Magi

Briar

Bonus! Even those these words are fairly simple and short, I love them:

Poof

Crib
