Fourth of July Word Scramble
This fun game is perfect for both large and small groups of people at your next celebration. I like to laminate each of the printables so that they can be reused over and over again as a patriotic-themed game.
When laminated, kids can use a dry erase marker to unscramble each word. Younger children can use the answer key and cross off words as they solve them.
The printable sheet can easily be downloaded – scroll to the bottom to grab the free PDF file. These free printable games are for personal use only.
Word scrambles are a great way to have younger kids practice word recognition. Words like stars, stripes, and party can be found on the word list.
