Father's Day word Scramble puzzle worksheet activity

Father’s Day Word Scramble – Dad-tastic Fun!

I whipped up this activity for my 2nd graders to celebrate Father’s Day—it turned into a hilarious battle of who could unscramble the silliest dad words! Kids race to solve 24 family-themed terms like "grillmaster," "superhero," and "mustache" (the word "DADBOD" had them in stitches!).

What You Get:
✔ 2 printable pages (scramble + answer key)
✔ Bonus "Draw Your Dad" challenge with scrambled traits (Example: "UNFNY" = funny)
✔ Wacky dad clipart (ties, BBQ tools, bad golf swings)

Classroom Moment:
“One student proudly solved ‘RETSI’ as ‘SIRET’ (tires)—‘My dad fixes them!’ Cue 20 kids shouting car-part words!” —Ms. L., K-3

Perfect For:
• Father’s Day craft sessions
• Donuts With Dad events
• Summer send-home packets

Sample Scrambles:

• HUGS (Answer: hugs)

• OLOC (Answer: cool)

• ADDBO (Answer: dadbod)

Teacher Tip:
Pair with “Dad Jokes”—students earn high-fives for using scrambled words in jokes (“Why did the grillmaster cross the road? To get to the meat-ing!”).
