About this word search
Knights in shining armour, a king and queen in their castle and a moat all around: young children love to play these stories at kindy and at home with a cardboard sword and shield.
The grid is ten by ten and every word runs to the right or straight down. Knight and Shield are the longest with six letters. King, Moat and Flag have four. Queen has a double E, and Knight starts with a silent K.
Make a crown out of paper and write a word from the list on each point. Whoever finds all ten is king or queen for the afternoon.
