Easy spring word search
Sun, rain, bee and lamb in a ten by ten grid for Prep and year one. None of the ten words is long, and each one runs only across or down, so children can do it without help.
- Bee
- Bird
- Bud
- Chick
- Lamb
- Nest
- Rain
- Seeds
- Sun
- Tulip
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
Young children notice spring through small things: a Bud on a branch, a Bee on the clover, a Nest high up in a gum tree. These ten words follow that eye for detail, and nearly all of them are short enough to sound out letter by letter.
Read each word with your child and clap once for every sound. Then search the rows from left to right, and after that the columns from top to bottom. Every word lies one of those two ways, so the search stays simple.
Afterwards, sow a pinch of seeds in an old yoghurt tub and keep a picture diary of what pushes up over the following weeks.
