About this word search
Young pirates need a Ship, a Map and a Crew, and all three are here along with a Hook and a Coin. Map, Sea and Hat have only three letters each, which suits a child who has just begun reading.
Treasure in this grid is buried in straight rows and columns only. Help your child find the double O in Hook, then check the letters around it. Reading the word aloud while pointing to each letter helps link the sound to the spelling.
Hide a few chocolate coins around the house afterwards and draw a simple map to find them.
