Scattergories rules
If you’re new to Scattergories, let me explain the fun! The objective is to fill out a category list with answers that start with the same letter.
You earn bonus points for coming up with unique answers that no one else has thought of, which adds an exciting twist to the game!
The player with the most points at the end wins, but the real joy comes from the laughs and creativity along the way.
In the official game, there’s a 20-sided die that rolls different letters, guiding your answers. But don’t worry if you don’t have the original game, we’ve included six printable boards for you to enjoy!
Just print out one for each family member and see who can come up with the most imaginative responses.
Plus, you won’t need the 20-sided die, as we’ve already listed the letters at the top of each board to make it even easier for you to play. Gather your loved ones and let the fun begin!

Tips for playing Scattergories with younger players
If you are playing Scattergories with younger children you will need to allow more time, in fact, we don’t have a timer when we play anyway.
Why not work in teams? Pair a younger child with an older sibling, or parent.
If the children can’t think of an answer beginning with the letter, why not let them find a word that has that letter in it instead?
And don’t forget to enjoy other winter themed board games while you’re at it!
