About this word search
On a clear night in New Zealand you can see the moon, bright planets like Mars and, with a bit of luck, a shooting star. These ten words are for little ones who want to be an astronaut.
The grid is ten by ten and each word goes across or down. Astronaut is the longest at nine letters and almost fills a row. Sun has only three letters. Star, Mars and Earth all have AR in them, so check the letters around it.
Make a paper rocket afterwards and write the found words on its side, one for every stage of the trip.
