How to run a Christmas word scramble at a party
- Print one level per age group. Easy for under-8s, medium for older kids, hard for adults.
- Set a timer. Five minutes for 20 words keeps the pace up; the player with the most correct answers wins.
- Play in teams. Pairs of an adult and a child work well for the medium level.
- Use the online game as a tie-breaker. Whoever solves the next word first takes the point.

Frequently asked questions
What are easy Christmas words to unscramble for kids?
Short, familiar words work best: Santa, snow, star, bell, tree, gift, elf and toys. All 20 easy puzzles above are between 3 and 6 letters.
How are the puzzles scrambled?
Each word is shuffled so it never matches the original spelling. For two-word phrases, each word is scrambled separately and the space stays in place, which gives players a useful clue.
