These free printable fall word scramble worksheets are a fun spelling activity for kids.
Each puzzle has 12 fall words to unscramble. A picture clue accompanies each jumbled word, making this an easy word scramble for kids.
It’s really a spelling worksheet in disguise. Children can sound out what they see in the picture, write down the letters they recognize, and then use the process of elimination to fill in the more challenging parts, like silent letters or extra vowels. This makes spelling practice feel less intimidating and more like a game.
In the process, kids will also build their vocabulary. There are fall words like yam, stew, cider, cloves, orchard, cinnamon, and migration.
Kids can enjoy coloring in the black and white illustrations once they’ve solved the word jumbles.
These printable puzzles are great for classrooms, homeschooling, or just keeping kids entertained on a cool fall afternoon. They’re also an easy way to sneak in some learning disguised as a game.
