August Word Scramble Free Printable

An August word scramble is one of our favorite ways to sneak in a little learning during the summer slump.

It’s low-prep, screen-free, and fun for a wide age range, whether you’re at home, in the classroom, or packing activities for a road trip.

My son always sees it as a game, but while he’s solving each scramble, he’s actually practicing spelling, building vocabulary, and staying mentally active without even realizing it.
