Fancy playing a word definition game? For each word you get right, 10 grains of rice are donated at no cost to you to the UN World Food Program. Donations are paid for by sponsors or advertising at no cost to you. For each answer you get right, you get a harder question. For each answer you get wrong, you get an easier answer!

1. Free rice is amazing- extremely fun and great educational game. I used it in my classroom and the students loved it, too. The fact that is also results in actual food donations is rewarding on so many levels. Great site!

2. This is great! It’s educational for little siblings, and at the same time, real grains of rice are being donated. :)
