The mission

Santa's workshop is locked for the season, and only young readers who can blend and read CVC words can collect the codes to get inside before the sleigh leaves.

How the escape room works

• Open the private link — no app or login required.
• Work through a series of animated reading CVC words challenges.
• Each correct answer reveals a code that unlocks the next room.
• Wrong answers won't open the lock, so the room checks itself.
• Crack the final code to escape and win.

What's included

• An interactive escape room hosted on a private site — animated, with randomized answers for replayability.
• No Boom Cards, Google Slides, logins, or subscriptions.
• A PDF containing your private access link to share via Google Classroom, email, or any LMS.
