Easy birthday word search
Cake, candles, lollies and a party hat: ten short birthday words in a ten by ten grid. Every word runs straight across or straight down, so it works as a quiet game at the party table.
- Balloon
- Cake
- Candles
- Friends
- Games
- Hat
- Lollies
- Party
- Present
- Wish
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
Birthdays in New Zealand often mean a party in the backyard with balloons, a cake with candles and friends from kindy or school. Lollies, games and a wish as the candles go out are the parts young children love most.
Candles, Balloon, Present, Lollies and Friends all have seven letters. Hat has only three and is easy to miss, and Cake and Wish have four. All words run left to right or top to bottom in the ten by ten grid.
Use the sheet as a quiet game while the cake is being cut. Each child who finishes gets to pick the next party game.
