Why you’ll love this Baby Scramble
- Quick set up – this puzzle only requires you to print it out. Everything else is done for you so you can focus on other things.
- Fun for all ages – this is a game that grandma can do as easily as younger family members, making it the perfect universal game.
- Fun designs – with two different designs you can choose from so it works with a baby boy or baby girl.
Two Baby Shower Scrambles
This baby shower word scramble comes with two different designs you can download and print at the bottom of this post!
One has more of a pink/purple color scheme that would work with most girl baby shower themes and the other is a green/blue design that would go well with pretty much any boy baby shower theme.
Note!
While there are two different designs of the baby shower scramble, the scrambles themselves are the same! So if you print out both, you’re just getting two different colors of the game – not different words or orders.
Or vice versa. The downloadable PDF comes with both designs so just pick the one that works best for the baby shower you’re hosting and print it out!
These can be printed at home or sent to a professional print shop. However you choose to print them, make sure you have enough copies for everyone, including the new mom, to play. Oh, and don’t forget to print the answer sheet too. It’s harder than you think to come up with the answers without the answer key!
The final step is gathering enough pens so that everyone can play at once. I recommend buying a bulk pack of pens like these so you don’t have to test every pen in your home.
Printing Recommendations
- I recommend printing in color on a white paper although technically printing in black and white works too!
- Print on white copier paper to save money or card stock if you want a sturdier design (though it’s really not necessary for this since you’re likely going to throw them away immediately after playing).
- For a more professional look send the file to be printed at your local print shop.
How to Use this Baby Shower Word Scramble
Your wonderful baby shower is here, which means it’s game time! It’s up to you when you play games. Printable games are great because they can be used as an ice breaker when people get in the door or as an easy way to get people to sit down.
This fun baby shower game is really easy to play. Once the games are printed out, just hand out a printout and a pen to everyone.
Then it is as simple as unscrambling the baby-related words and filling in the correct word in the blank space beside them.
Once everyone has filled in their game sheet, simply review the answers and see who got the most correct.
The person with the most correct wins. I like to give out a fun themed prize to the winner, but that’s up to you.
Tip!
If you want to make this more of a race, you can make it a who can unscramble it the fastest game too! Have everyone turn over their paper then call out a number. Have guests turn their paper’s over quickly and whoever can find the number and yell out the unscrambled word first wins a prize. Flip them back over and go again until you’ve gone through all (or most) of them!
Baby Shower Word Scramble Answers
The printable download the bottom of this post comes with an answer sheet that will give you all of the answers of the scrambled words! I highly recommend printing it because honestly some of these are a little tricky on purpose. If they’re too easy, it’s not fun for anyone!
Tips & tricks
To make this game more challenging set a timer. First person to correctly answer all of the scrambled words wins.
I always recommend printing extra copies, you never know if someone is going to bring a friend or water gets spilled on a page. Better safe than sorry.
If you have a tie – either give both a prize or do a tie breaker. The tie breaker can be answering a question about the new baby or see which person can unscramble another word the fastest. Or use one of our baby shower trivia questions!
Don’t forget the answer key, you don’t want to be scrambling trying to figure out the answers.
