I have been very into playing word games on my phone lately. I love how they are both entertaining while still being challenging and making me think. It is a great combination for a game and always makes me feel like I’m getting a little bit smarter each time!

As great as digital games are, there is really nothing that compares to old fashioned pen and paper. This free printable How many words can you make out of Independence Day game is the perfect activity to challenge your brain, get a little competitive with friends and family, and of course have a bunch of fun.

How do you play the how many words can you make game?

At the top of the page there will be a certain word or words. In this case, the words are “Independence Day.”

Using only the letters I,N,D,E,P,E,D,E,N,C,E,D,A,Y one time each, you have to see how many different words you can make.

On the activity sheet there are 30 lines available. However, if you feel inspired and can keep going, you can always flip the page over and continue writing down the words you find.

Did you know there are 174 words you can make out of “Independence Day?” Here are a few to get you started:

How to turn the activity into a scattergories game:

I love scattergories, and it adds such a fun additional element to playing this game. Here’s how it works:

  1. First set a timer for a certain duration, somewhere around 5-10 minutes.
  2. Each player now has to start coming up with as many words as they can using only the letters found in “Independence Day.” TIP: Try to come up with the most unique words as you can!
  3. After the timer runs out, everyone will go around the room announcing the words they came up with. If another player has the same word as you, you both must cross it off your list.
  4. Whoever has the most unique words at the end of the game, wins!
