About this word search
Kūmara is the sweet potato of Aotearoa, red, gold or orange inside, and it is roasted, mashed or cooked in a hāngī. Peas, corn and pumpkin are the vegetables most Kiwi kids know from their own dinner plate.
The grid is ten by ten and words only go from left to right or from top to bottom. Pumpkin is the longest with seven letters. Peas, corn, leek and kale have only four letters each. Kūmara is written without the line over the U, just KUMARA.
Ask your child to colour in the vegetables they ate this week, then pick one new vegetable from the list to try at dinner.
