About this word search

Valentine's Day comes only a few weeks into the Australian school year, while classes are still getting to know each other. That makes it a good moment to talk about friendship rather than romance, and this list leaves room for both: Friend, Smile and Together sit beside Cupid and his Arrow.

The fourteen by fourteen grid lets entries slant as well as lie flat or stand upright, though none is spelled in reverse. Short entries like Red, Hug and Kiss can hide close to longer ones, so it helps to cross off the long words first. Chocolate and Valentine are the two longest, with nine letters each.

A classroom follow-up: each student writes an anonymous kind note to a classmate using at least two words from the list.
