About this word search
Many Australian families have roots somewhere in Europe, so this list often sets off stories about grandparents and old photos. Greece, Italy and Croatia are among the countries whose languages are still spoken at home in plenty of Australian suburbs.
Country names sit in rows, in columns and on slanting lines, and every one of them reads forwards. Switzerland and Netherlands are the biggest names to hunt. Czechia gives itself away with the unusual CZ at the front.
For a geography lesson, students can shade every country they find on an outline map, with a different pencil for each.
