Have fun this Christmas with our Scattergories printables
If you don’t have the original game, these six printables are all you will need to have lots of fun this season.
Instructions:
Download the free printable Christmas word game below, if the email doesn’t come through within 5 minutes please check your junk folder.
This Christmas scattergories free printable is free to print but is for personal or classroom use only. Scroll to the bottom of the page to get the pdf file.
Print out the six Christmas scattergories – just make sure you print to either A4 or letter and click on shrink to fit. I have tried so they should print on both sized paper.
Paper or Card – the printables work perfectly on printer paper so you can easily write on them. These all fit onto one full sheet of paper, so no need for cutting. If you want them to look professional though printing on cardstock will be better, the one I have linked to is what we use.
Grab some pens for you to fill out, and more importantly, have FUN.
How to play Christmas scattergories
If you are not familiar with the game Scattergories, the object of the game is to fill out a category list with answers that begin with the same letter.
Included in the email are the five Christmas scattergories with letters included above, TREE, GIFT, STAR, XMAS, and SNOW, plus the Christmas Scattergories lists to play with the original game.
You score points if no one else has the same answer. The winner of course is the one with the most points. We have created a printable with 5 Christmas-themed category lists, with 1 left blank for you to fill in as you wish.
The official game comes with a 20-sided die with different letters on it. This letter is the first letter of each of your answers on the category list.
If you don’t have the game Scattergories we have also included 6 different printable boards for you to play together. Print out one for each family member and have so much fun seeing what answers you come up with.
You also don’t need the 20-sided die as we have included the letters at the top of each of the boards.
You can also have fun our free winter scattergories.
