Tips for solving the easter word search

Hunt for the longest word first — "Jellybean" (9 letters) is the easiest to spot and anchors the rest.
Circle each word on the list as you find it, and say the easter word out loud.
Words run across, down, and diagonally on this medium puzzle, so scan every direction — not just left to right.
Print one copy per child, or grab the answer key on page two to check finished easter puzzles at a glance.

Customization options

Grid size

This easter sheet opens at 14 × 14. Smaller grids print with bigger letters that are easier for young children to scan; larger grids hide the words more deeply for a tougher hunt.

Difficulty

Easy hides words across and down only — best for early readers. Medium (the default here) adds diagonals. Hard uses all eight directions, including backwards, for older solvers. The instruction line on the printed sheet updates to match.
