Favorite Printable Supplies:
These are a few of my favorite supplies that I use for printable games and activities:
- White Cardstock: For most projects, I recommend printing onto cardstock. It is much more durable than standard printer paper and often produces a higher quality print.
- Crayons: A staple in any crafting household. Crayola is always the top notch choice!
- Kid Friendly Safety Scissors: These are perfect for little kids learning how to use scissors. They cut paper but not fingers or hair!
- Glue Sticks: These disappearing purple glue sticks are by far my favorite! I love buying them in bulk since we use them so often!
- Lamination Machine: Laminating printables are a great way to make them last longer. If you are planning on laminating to make games reusable, be sure to get a bunch of dry erase markers as well.
- Dry Erase Pockets: Dry erase pockets are a great alternative to using a lamination machine when wanting to make printable games and activities reusable.
- Printer: A high quality printer is always recommended for the best results. If you are in need of a printer this Brother Wireless Printer is a great choice.
How to make word search games more competitive.
- Find words as fast as you can!
Hand out all of the word search games to your group with the paper face down. When someone says “GO,” have everyone try to find all of the words as fast as possible. Whoever finds all of the words in the puzzle the fastest, can win a prize. - Set a timer.
Similar to the idea above, but this time with a set amount of time. Set a timer for 5 minutes and have everyone try to find as many words as they can. The person who has found the most words by the time the timer goes off, can win a prize! - Make it into a raffle.
Have everyone work on their work search puzzle at their leisure. After they have completed it, have each person write their name at the top of the page and place the completed puzzle into a box or a hat. At the end of the party or event, the host can choose one game out of the box at random and whoever’s game is chosen, will win a prize.
