Language
Language brain teasers are those that involve the English language. You need to think about and manipulate words and letters.Language
In this teaser, you are to start with the letter 'I' and then each time add a letter and shuffle it to make a new word. You need to continue this process until you reach the word 'CAMPING'.
Not including 'I', you must do this in six (6) turns.
Good luck.

Awesome teaser.
This was a great teaser Jazz. I had all but one word right. Not perfect but I'm happy!!
Very fun teaser!
I don't want to nitpick, because I truly enjoyed this teaser. But you list in the instructions to start with the letter "T". This starts with the letter "I".
Great teaser still.

I thought the instructions contained a T as well. Just old eyes I guess. Great teaser
I thought I needed to keep the letters in order:
I
PI
PIN
PING
APING
AMPING
CAMPING

good one, pretty well known teaser i've seen in brain teaser books before
btw to people above: amping and maping aren't words
btw to people above: amping and maping aren't words
Ya, I didn't do so well on that one...
There are a variety ways of doing the puzzles. Good work though.
carlp: Maping is a city in China (perhaps not accepted as a word), but Amping certainly is a word.
ciotag: yeah we all have the internet and when you google maping it comes up as a city in china... doesn't mean it's a word... is that what that person was using it as? i don't think so.... it's also apparently a company name...
amping is not a real word, just slang for amplifying
if you are going to argue at least have a reasonable argument

So many options . . .
Count me as one who saw the letter T until I squinted and saw an I with " around it instead, but am not good at these kind of teasers so did not even try. I am sure it was fun for some of you.

Even though it's a repeat, I love this puzzle. I got one of the variations but the actual one (including pain and panic) is much better. Thanks for posting!
..."then each time add a letter and shuffle it to make a new word."
It really annoyed me that the first three words aren't shuffled because the directions appear that make that a necessity. Oh well!

Very fun and enjoyable teaser; I got some of the words but not all of them.
This was a fun puzzle to do. It was the first time I saw one like this on here, even though it seems to be a repeat.
