Word Search Puzzle Book

150 word searches on 50 themes, each theme at three levels, from birds and garden flowers to composers and Shakespeare.

What’s inside

  • 50 Easy: words go across and down
  • 50 Medium: across, down and diagonally downwards
  • 50 Hard: every direction, including backwards
  • 15 × 15 grids
  • Print edition — A4 and US Letter, two puzzles a page, answers at the back
  • Tablet edition — four page sizes, with a contents page you tap to move around and a link back from every page

Opening your download

Your files arrive as a ZIP. Download it from Etsy in a web browser (on a computer is easiest), then unzip it: on most computers, double-click it; on a phone or tablet, open it in your files app and tap it. Open the PDFs from the unzipped folder, not from inside the ZIP.

Can’t find the download? On Etsy, go to Your account → Purchases and reviews, and use the Download files button on the order.

Printing

  • Print at 100% — “actual size” — not “fit to page”, so everything comes out the size it was drawn.
  • Use the file that matches your paper: A4 or US Letter.
  • Ordinary printer paper is fine; heavier paper (120–160 gsm, about 32–43 lb) makes cards and covers sturdier.
  • Print only the pages you need, as often as you like, for your own household, party or classroom.

The tablet edition

The tablet edition has the same pages, with links: the contents page jumps to each section, and every page links back to the contents. It comes in four page sizes — S for 7–8 inch screens, M for 10–11 inch, L for 13 inch, A4 for larger tablets. Try M first.

Open it in an app or on a tablet that lets you write on a PDF. On some tablets the links answer a finger tap but not the pen; every page also shows its page number.

Find every word in the list hidden in the grid, and circle it or draw a line through it. Tick the word off the list as you go.

  • Easy: words go across (left to right) and down.
  • Medium: words also go diagonally downwards.
  • Hard: words can go in every direction, including backwards and upwards.

Every word appears exactly once. Spaces in a phrase are left out of the grid. The answers are at the back.
