About this word search
Superheroes are as popular in New Zealand as anywhere, and Kiwi director Taika Waititi has made two Thor films. Every school dress-up day has its share of capes and masks, and most children know exactly which superpower they would choose.
The grid is fourteen by fourteen and words run across, down and diagonally, never backwards. Secret identity is the longest with fourteen letters and fills a whole row, column or diagonal. Utility belt has eleven. Cape, Mask, Hero and Lair have only four. Look for the X in X-ray vision, the only one, and the K in Mask, Sidekick and Comic book. X-ray vision runs as XRAYVISION, without hyphen or space.
Children can invent their own superhero after the puzzle: a name, a costume, a superpower and an arch enemy, all drawn on the back of the sheet.
