About this word search
The Department of Conservation runs more than three hundred campsites across New Zealand, from basic ones with a tap and a toilet to serviced ones with hot showers. Pitching a tent properly means laying the ground sheet first, pegging the guy ropes tight and stretching the fly sheet so the rain runs off.
The grid is eighteen by eighteen and words run in all eight directions, backwards included. Marshmallows is the longest with twelve letters, and six words have eleven: Sleeping bag, Air mattress, DOC campsite, Pocketknife, Ground sheet and Toilet block. Tent, Pegs and Tarp are four letters and easy to overlook, especially backwards. Look for the Z in Gazebo, the only one, and the two K's in Pocketknife. Every two-word name runs without a space.
Use it for a quiet hour at the campground, or as a quiz: for every word, explain what it is for. Fly sheet and guy ropes separate the experienced campers from the beginners.
