Find the word that finishes one expression and starts the next in this Before and After printable game. For example, POP + CORN + FIELD makes popcorn and cornfield. The bundle contains 20 themed rounds with eight word-sandwich puzzles each, covering snacks, animals, home, music and more.
You receive 20 themed rounds of this game, 160 word-sandwich puzzles, and answer keys for every round. Answer keys show each linking word and both completed expressions, with accepted alternatives where listed. Also included: Quick Host Guide with a 20-round index and personal-use notes. Four non-editable PDFs include US Letter and A4, each in full-page and ready-made 2-up layouts. Each full-page PDF has 41 pages; each 2-up PDF has 21 landscape sheets with two different consecutive player rounds per game sheet.

Why Buyers Will Like It
- A clear wordplay format with a satisfying reveal.
- Theme-specific instructions give players a useful starting point.
- The keys explain both halves of each word connection.
How It Works
- Download and open the PDF for your paper size and preferred layout.
- Choose a theme and print a copy for each player. Have pens or pencils ready; scissors are useful for cutting 2-up sheets.
- Write one linking word in each gap, following the theme rule on that page. Score 1 point per correct answer; highest score wins and ties share the win.
- Keep the answer pages with the host until everyone has finished.
Printing Notes
For the largest text and writing space, choose a full-page file: US Letter (8.5 x 11 inches) or A4 (210 x 297 mm). Print at Actual Size or 100%.
The 2-up PDFs are already arranged in landscape, pairing rounds 1 + 2, then 3 + 4, and so on. Print one PDF page per physical sheet; do not apply another "2 pages per sheet" printer setting. Guides and keys are grouped separately. An odd support or answer page can leave a blank half. Test one sheet to check the full borders, then cut down the center if needed.
