About this word search
A day at the beach is part of almost every Kiwi summer. Pack the chilly bin, put on sunblock because the sun here burns fast, and swim between the red and yellow flags where the lifeguards keep watch. At low tide you can dig for pipi in the sand, but there are rules about how many you may take.
The grid is fourteen by fourteen and words run across, down and diagonally, never backwards. Boogie board is the longest at eleven letters, then Sandcastle with ten. Togs, Tide and Pipi have only four letters and hide well. Sand appears in both Sandcastle and Sand dunes, and Sun in Sunblock and Sunhat, so check which one you have. Look for the J in Jandals and the double O in Boogie board, Rock pool and Driftwood. Two-word names like Chilly bin and Rock pool run together without a space.
Take the sheet to the beach on a clipboard and turn it into a scavenger hunt: tick off each word you can actually see, from a seagull to a piece of driftwood. Whoever finds the most before the ice blocks come out wins.
