About this word search
The red and yellow Flags on an Australian beach mark the area patrolled by lifesavers, and swimming between them is the first rule every child learns. Rip is another word worth explaining: a strong current running back out to sea, often in a calmer-looking gap between the breaking waves.
Like a set of waves, the words roll in across, down or at an angle, but none of them washes back to front. Surfboard and Bodyboard both end in BOARD, which helps you find one once you have seen the other. Wax and Rip are only three letters, so leave them until the end.
Pack it in the beach bag beside the Esky and the Sunscreen for the hour in the middle of the day when the sun is too strong to stay in the water.
