Easter Scramble

Supplies:

  • Index Cards
  • Paper Bags

How To Play: Choose an Easter word such as: Easter Bunny, Chocolate, Basket, Hippity-Hop.... Write the letters of the word on individual index cards. Do this two times, making two sets. Put each set in a brown paper bag. Divide children into teams. Give each team a bag. The first team to decipher what the word in the bag is, wins. A variation of the game would be to divide into teams with the same number of children as there are letters in the word. Each child get's a letter and they must hold onto the card and stand in the proper order to spell the word for all to see.
