SPELLING GAME COMPRISING REMOVABLE TOKENS POSITIONED ON A TRACK
The presently disclosed subject matter is generally directed to an educational and entertaining game that includes a playing board and a plurality of game tokens. The game board includes a track configured as an internal channel for receiving a plurality of tokens. The board is configured such that the track includes a first height that gradually lowers to a second height. The difference in height allows the tokens to travel along the track in a single row. Each token includes an indicator that can be one or more letters, numbers, words, or symbols. The tokens can be removed from the track to spell words with the remaining tokens configured on the track. As a token is removed, the remaining tokens will travel towards the lower end of the board due to the sloped configuration of the track. In this way, the ordering of the tokens is preserved.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACHIEVING CONTROLLED MOVEMENT OF AT LEAST ONE MAGNET
System for achieving controlled movement of at least one first magnet. The movement is caused by a repulsive force from at least one second magnet. Before movement of the first magnet, the magnet and one of the at least one second magnets are aligned in such a way that a line E-E running through both centers C, D of the magnets, is not perpendicular to the magnetic axis A-A, B-B of any of the magnets. A method for controlled movement of at least one first magnet includes aligning the at least one first magnet and the at least one second magnet in such a way that a line E-E running through both centers C, D of the magnets, are not perpendicular to the magnetic axis A-A, B-B of the magnets. The magnets are aligned close to each other while they are retained, and the first magnet is released.
