The Elf Workshop Mix-Up: Printable Christmas Escape Room Game for Kids (Ages 8-12)
It's the night before the big toy delivery, and Head Elf Tinsel locked the Toy Sleigh with a 5-digit code... then fell fast asleep. Your team of helper elves has about 60 minutes to find his hidden clues and unlock the sleigh before midnight.
This is an instant-download PDF. Print it on US Letter paper, fill 3 envelopes, and you're ready. Players work together through 8 puzzles: a secret number code, a toy-pile counting challenge, a "who made what?" logic grid, garland number patterns, a cookie-recipe math problem, a mirror-writing clue, a sleigh loading list, and the final sleigh lock. Each puzzle gives part of the final code, and the lock card includes a simple check so players know if they're on the right track.
You get (18 pages):
- Cover, host welcome page, and supply list

- Envelope labels
- 8 puzzles plus a number-code chart
- Tiered hint cards (2 pages: a nudge, bigger help, and the solution for each puzzle)

Good for family game nights, holiday parties, sleepovers, and winter break. Best for ages 8-12 (younger kids can play with a grown-up helping). 3-8 players. Black-and-white printing works. A small mirror helps with one puzzle, but a bright window works too.
