Three related 10-letter words are hidden within the following ten lines. The first lines has the first letters of each word, the second line has their second letters, and so on. The catch is that on each line, the letters are jumbled together. In the hint, the theme is listed, but jumbled around. Good luck!

Thanks KDestroyer9. Another good one. I like this series.
Fun series. This one jumped out at me pretty quickly, except that at first I thought I saw Playground and Blackboard, going school theme. Of course, both use the L and *ahem* there was no K for Blackboard.
I don't know if the hint would help if you are stuck, but it was fun to unscramble after getting all three words.

I was able to solve this using scipe. The model I used can be found at https://gist.github.com/

The puzzle definitions plus some word heuristics (no 3 vowels and no 4 consonants in a row) and the exclusion of some invalid consonant combinations, got me solutions like SKATEBOLLS PEACHROUND BLAYGBAARD, or SKACEBOLNS PLAYGROULD BEATHBAARD, which easily led me to the correct one.
