Easy summer holidays word search
Tent, lake, ferry and an ice cream with the cousins: ten short holiday words in a ten by ten grid. Every word runs straight across or straight down, so it is a good one for the back seat.
- Beach
- Car
- Cousins
- Ferry
- Ice cream
- Lake
- Map
- River
- Swim
- Tent
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
In the summer holidays many New Zealand families go camping, take a ferry or drive to a lake or river. Children spend long days at the beach with their cousins and finish with an ice cream.
Ice cream is the longest word, with eight letters once the space is gone, and Cousins has seven. Map and Car have only three letters. All words run left to right or top to bottom in the ten by ten grid.
Take the sheet on the road trip. Every time you see one of the words for real, a tent, a lake or a ferry, your child can draw a star next to it.
