About this word search

Superhero stories often follow the same pattern: a hero with a secret, a villain with a plan and a city that needs saving. These twenty words can be used to build that kind of story from scratch, with a Laboratory for the origin and a Mission for the climax.

Heroes in this grid fly across, down or diagonally, though never backwards. Laboratory and Invisible are the longest. The V in Villain and Invisible helps you spot both quickly.

Afterwards, ask children to invent their own hero with one power from the list, then draw the costume and give the hero a name.
