The games are:

Matilda's the Bookworm: With a hand of 7 cards, each player in their turn asks another player for a letter, who must give it to them if they have it, otherwise they draw a card. Then they spell a word from their hand or discard 3 cards, drawing to replace the cards. They get 1 bookworm card for a word of 3 letters, 2 cards for a word of 4 letters, and 3 cards for a word of 5 or more letters. The first player to have 10 or more bookworm cards wins.

Matilda's Wordgrid: Deal out cards to make a 4x4 grid. Players have 1 minute to write down all the words they can spell using the letters in the grid. The player with the most correct words gets 1 bookworm card. Repeat until a player has 5 bookworm cards and wins.

Matilda's Wordstock: One card is dealt to each of 5 columns on the table. From their hand of 10 cards, a player in their turn plays cards to a column to make a new word, using or covering previous cards, or discards 3 cards; cards used are replaced from the draw pile. Players get 1, 2, or 3 bookworm cards depending on the length of the word made; the first to 10 book worm cards wins.
