About this word search
Many children in New Zealand live a short drive from the sea, and a beach day means togs, jandals, a towel and a bucket and spade. Pipi are small shellfish that live in the sand, and finding one with your toes is a summer highlight.
The grid is ten by ten and every word runs to the right or straight down. Jandals is the longest with seven letters, then Bucket and Sunhat with six. Sand, Togs and Pipi are only four letters long. The J in Jandals is easy to find, and Pipi is the same two letters twice, P I P I.
After the puzzle, children can draw their own beach and put every word in the picture. A towel, a sunhat and a bucket in the sand are a good start.
