About this word search
Canada stretches across six time zones, so the New Year arrives in Newfoundland four and a half hours before it reaches British Columbia. A family in St. John's can be toasting the new year while relatives in Vancouver are still clearing the dinner plates.
January takes its name from Janus, the Roman god with two faces, one looking back at the old year and one looking forward to the new. In the grid, January and Champagne are among the longer words. Diagonals are allowed, reversed spellings are not. Short ones like New and Year are easy to miss, so check for them carefully.
Once the puzzle is solved, ask each person to write one resolution on a strip of paper and seal it in an envelope to open next December.
