Simplest way is probably to use a behavior attached to the sprite in the score:

on keyDown me

   if the key = RETURN or the key = ENTER then
     BEEP
     dontPassEvent
   else
     pass
   end if

END keyDown

That also grabs the keypad enter key as well as the standard keyboard 
return. You don't have to include the beep, of course, but it serves 
to let the user know you know he pressed a key.
