A good children's word search book uses a small grid, around 10 by 10, with big letters, about ten familiar words per puzzle and words that only run forwards and down. Themes children know keep them interested. Our pack has 30 themed puzzles for ages 6 to 9.
Thirty themed word searches with big, clear letters: animals, the ocean, space, food, weather and more. Words run across, down and diagonally.
