About this word search
A&P shows have been part of country life in New Zealand since the nineteenth century. Heavy horses such as the Clydesdale parade in the ring, sheepdog trials test dog and handler, and the home industries hall fills with jams, preserves, baking and knitting competing for a champion ribbon. Friesian cows, poultry pens and, more recently, alpacas fill the stock lines.
Sheepdog trials and Home industries are the longest, with fourteen letters each. Woodchopping has twelve. Cattle, Baking, Judges, Hot dog and Fleece are the shortest, with six. Four entries contain SHOW, so check each before marking. The grid is eighteen by eighteen and words run in all eight directions, backwards too.
Give the sheet to the kids in the car on the way to the show. Whoever finds Clydesdale first picks the first animal pen to visit.
