Easy autumn word search
Leaf, feijoa, acorn and a rake for the lawn: ten short autumn words in a ten by ten grid. Every word runs straight across or straight down, never diagonal.
- Acorn
- Apple
- Feijoa
- Fog
- Leaf
- Mushroom
- Pumpkin
- Rain
- Rake
- Scarf
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
Autumn comes to New Zealand in March. The leaves fall, it gets a bit colder and feijoas ripen in many backyards. It is a good season for raking leaves, finding acorns and splashing in puddles in gumboots.
Mushroom is the longest word, with eight letters, and Pumpkin has seven. Fog is the shortest, with three. The J in Feijoa is the only one in the ten by ten grid. All words run left to right or top to bottom.
Collect a few autumn leaves on your next walk and let your child stick one next to every word they find.
