Easy forest word search
Tree, fox, owl and emu, with moss, a nut and a log on the path. Take this small ten by ten grid along on a bushwalk, because the ten words only go across or down.
- Bird
- Emu
- Fox
- Leaf
- Log
- Moss
- Nut
- Owl
- Path
- Tree
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
Emu is the one animal here found only in Australia, and it is a fun word to say out loud. Log and Nut are the kind of treasures a child brings home in a pocket, which makes those words feel real before the search even starts.
Each of the ten words sits in a single row or a single column, reading the ordinary way. Start with the five three-letter words, Fox, Owl, Emu, Log and Nut, which are quick to find. Then move to the four-letter ones once your child is confident with the pattern.
After a bushwalk, lay out a leaf, a nut and a bit of moss on the table and match each one to its word.
