Snowtastic Winter Scattergories
"One of the best parts of winter break is having the family all together to play games. Our Winter Scattergories is the perfect activity for family game night this winter! This game is so easy to play. Once you download and print your free Winter Scattergories printable, cut the letters out and put them in a bowl. Then, one person will draw a letter from the bowl and everyone will write as many winter-themed words that start with that letter as they can in 3 minutes. You've got to give this game a try! "

Instructions
-
Hand out answer sheets to each player, and choose one of the 5 lists: Snow and Ice, January, Winter Food, Staying Indoors, or Movies and Music. You can also create your own list using the blank one we’ve included!
-
One player chooses a letter. You can do this by picking one of our printed alphabet letter cards from a bowl or hat, or you can roll an alphabet die. If you already own the traditional scattergories game, you can use the die that comes with it.
-
Start the timer and start writing down your answers for each category until the time runs out. Answers must match the category and start with the chosen letter for that round. Each round is usually 3 minutes.
-
Once the round is over, it’s fun to hear everyone’s answers! If you are keeping score, circle any answers that no one else gave, and cross them out if they match someone’s answer. Each circled word is worth a point!
-
You can play as many rounds as you want! Just pick a new letter and use the same list or try a different one!
