❄️ Blizzard Blunders Word Play | Winter Spelling & Vocabulary Game (Printable)
Bring winter fun into your spelling and vocabulary practice with Blizzard Blunders Word Play—a low-prep, high-engagement printable game your students (and kids at home!) will love.
This activity is a friendly alternative to traditional Hangman, making it a great choice for families, classrooms, and homeschool settings. Instead of drawing a figure, students build a snowman—keeping the focus on learning while staying lighthearted and fun.
⛄ How It Works
Choose a spelling or vocabulary word from your current lesson.
Draw a blank for each letter.
Students take turns guessing letters.
Correct guess? Fill it in.
Wrong guess? Add a snowman piece.
Guess the word before the snowman is completely built!
👉 Bonus: Longer words = more accessories = extended play!

Family game nights
Homeschool lessons
