Play and learn
What are the bugs? Read the clues and guess the bugs before the mosquito drinks all your blood!

How to play: You'll see spaces below. Each space is one letter of a word. For example, if you see 6 spaces, then the word has 6 letters. There is a clue under each word. Read the clue. Can you guess what the word is?

Click on some letters. If they are in the word they will go into the spaces. If they're not in the word - well, watch the monkey! Can you guess the word? Can you save the monkey?

WANT SOMETHING TO DO NOW?
Why not play animal hangman with you friends? Here's how!

Think of an animal, for example 'HORSE'. Write spaces on a piece of paper. Put one space for each letter. For this example you put five spaces because 'HORSE' has five letters, for example:  _ _ _ _ _
Show your friend the paper. Tell your friend that the word is an animal of five letters. Dont' tell your friend what the word is!
Your friend says letters that they think are in the word. If they say 'R' for example, then you write the letter in the correct space, for example: _ _ R _ _
If your friend says a letter that isn't in the word, for example 'P' then give yourself a point. Your friend guesses again.
Can you friend guess the word before you get five points? When you get five points tell your friend what the word is.
