About this word search

Every kitchen has a pot, a pan and a jug for the tea. In New Zealand the kettle is usually called the jug, so it is on this sheet with the spoons, forks and plates that young helpers set out for dinner.

The grid is ten by ten and all words go from left to right or from top to bottom. Spoon, knife and plate are the longest with five letters. Pot, pan, jug and cup have only three letters, so they are the trickiest. The J in jug and the K in knife and fork are good places to start.

Let your child find a word, then go and touch the real thing in the kitchen. It works well while waiting for the toast to pop.
