Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

I’m a neighbourly newbie 😊 I recently moved to Karori from Aro Valley (although originally from Heretaunga (Hastings)) and loving it out here! 😊
I’m starting a new music tutoring studio in Karori offering music lessons and one off workshops in Violin, Guitar, Singing, Songwriting, Recording and Music Theory for all ages and stages (www.graceduncanmusic.com...).
I thought I’d share on here that I’ll be running a few 2-hour music workshops for 8-14 year olds for the second week of the school holidays for parents with kids looking for some fun things to do over the break!
There will be:
- Vocal workshops for 8-12 year olds on Mon 17th and Tues 18th April
- Violin workshops for 8-14 year olds on Mon 17th and Tues 18th April (no violin required)
These are for beginners and/or students looking to try out a new instrument with ‘Music with Grace’!
If you're interested in the workshops or in music lessons, go to www.graceduncanmusic.com... to find out more info and to sign up - limited spaces available 😊
Thanks team 😊
