Easy family word search
Mum, dad, baby and nan in a puzzle to do together, then draw your own family underneath. Young children look only across and down for the ten words in the ten by ten grid.
- Aunt
- Baby
- Dad
- Home
- Mum
- Nan
- Sister
- Son
- Twin
- Uncle
This is the same puzzle as on the printable sheet. Every word you find turns green and is crossed off the list.

About this word search
Plenty of children can recognise Mum, Dad and Nan on paper before almost anything else, which gives this puzzle an easy way in. Each of them is only three letters long, and so is Son.
Read through all ten words together. Show how to find the M of Mum, then check the letters to its right and the letters below it. Every word lies in a row or a column, never on a slant. Sister and Uncle are the longest and can come last.
Then draw everyone who lives in your home and write the right word under each person.
