Being able to easily find graphics will save teachers or coordinators time when preparing for a spelling bee challenge. Using graphics is visually enticing, encourages children to participate, and holds participants' interests in the event. Graphics can be found online or from offline sources. Spelling bees are an exciting opportunity for school age children to improve their spelling and vocabulary. Children can also gain confidence and experience being in front of an audience. Spelling bee participation by adults, especially in the older years, helps to keep the brain active.
