Easy family word search
Mom, dad, baby and nana in a puzzle to do together, then draw your own family underneath. Young children look only across and down for the ten words in the ten by ten grid.
- Aunt
- Baby
- Dad
- Home
- Mom
- Nana
- Sister
- Son
- Twin

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
Mom and Dad are usually among the earliest words a young reader can sound out alone, and both are in this puzzle along with Nana, Baby and Sister. Before you start, let your child say who in their own family goes with each word.
With just three letters apiece, Mom, Dad and Son make an easy opening. Sister is the longest. All ten run across the rows or down the columns, so your child can slide a finger along one line at a time and stop at the right letter.
When the puzzle is done, open a photo album or scroll through some pictures together, and match each word to a real person in your family.
