As Easy As…
A good activity to do alone or with a friend is the A to Z Game.
Write the letters A through Z down one side of a piece of paper. Choose a topic and come up with a word for each letter. It can start out simple, like names of people, things you associate with a season or a holiday, street names, cities or (an especially good one) things you are grateful for.
If the letters Q, X and Z are too much of a challenge in some categories, just skip them or look it up. Take it up a notch and print the words with your non-dominant hand.
