About this word search
Owning a pet involves more than the animal itself, and this list knows it. Next to Hamster and Budgie you will find a Leash, a Bowl, some Kibble and a trip to the Vet. That makes it a good starting point for a class talk about what an animal needs every day, or for a family deciding whether they are ready for a guinea pig.
Words in the grid run across, down and diagonally, always reading forwards. Guinea pig appears as one unbroken run of letters with no space, which catches people out. Rat, Cat and Dog hide well among the rest, so tick off the long entries first.
When the grid is done, children can draw a pet of their own, real or wished for, and label the things from the list it would need.
