About this word search

Young children love any game where they get to touch their nose or wiggle their toes, and these ten words are made for exactly that. Every one names a part of the body they can point to straight away.

Read the list together first and say the words slowly. Each one sits in a straight row or a straight column with no slanting, so trace each row with a finger until the first letter appears. Short ones such as Eye, Toe and Leg make a gentle start, and Hand, Foot and Hair can follow.

Once a word is circled, play a quick round of Simon Says with that body part, then swap so the child gives the instructions.

Ways to use this word search

  • In the classroom

    Print it as a task for early finishers, or to open a lesson on this topic. With the QR code on the sheet, pupils check their own answers.

  • At home and on the go

    Pack a few printed sheets for the car, the train or the holidays. A pen is all you need, no screen required.

  • Play together

    Print the sheet twice and race each other. Whoever finds all the words first wins. Or play it online and see who is fastest.

Try it in Spanish too

The same theme also exists in Spanish, French, German and Italian, each with its own word list in that language. Handy if you are learning a language: you already know the topic, now just the words.
