About this word search
A Kiwi kitchen has its own vocabulary: the jug instead of the kettle, the bench instead of the counter and a tea towel over the oven handle. Most homes have a potato masher for the Sunday roast and a cake tin that has seen years of birthday cakes, and the dishwasher is still a hot topic of who loads it best.
This grid is eighteen by eighteen and words run in all eight directions, backwards too. Chopping board has thirteen letters, potato masher and measuring cup twelve each. Jug is the only three-letter word and holds the only J. The Z of freezer appears just once. Tin turns up in both cake tin and tin opener, so check the whole word before you circle it.
Make it a game while the dishes soak: one person reads a word, the other has to say what it is used for before searching. A wrong answer means drying up.
