Easy farm word search
Cow, pig, hen and hay: a gentle farm puzzle for little ones after an excursion to the farm. Ten short words in a ten by ten grid, and they only run across and down, never backwards.
- Barn
- Cow
- Duck
- Egg
- Goat
- Hay
- Hen
- Lamb
- Mud
- Pig
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
Mud may well be the favourite word on this list for many five year olds, and it sits happily alongside Hen, Egg and Lamb. All ten are short and spelt the way they sound, which suits a child who is putting letters together for the first time.
Words here run only across and down. Read the first one together, then let your child look along the top row for its opening letter before moving down to the next row. Going row by row like this turns the search into a calm routine instead of a scramble.
Later on, draw a little farm and label each animal with the word your child found.
