About this word search

Hooray is not a word you usually find in a puzzle, which is part of the charm of this list. It sits next to Confetti, Streamers and Lemonade, everything a backyard party might need.

The fourteen by fourteen grid uses horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines, and no word is reversed. Invitation is the longest and makes a good first find. Hat and Card are short. Blow and Balloon both begin with B, so look one letter further before you commit.

Copies can go into goody bags at the end of the party. Guests who finish early can circle the word that best describes their favorite part of the day.

Ways to use this word search

  • In the classroom

    Print it as a task for early finishers, or to open a lesson on this topic. With the QR code on the sheet, students check their own answers.

  • At home and on the go

    Pack a few printed sheets for the car, the train or a family vacation. A pen is all you need, no screen required.

  • Play together

    Print the sheet twice and race each other. Whoever finds all the words first wins. Or play it online and see who is fastest.

Try it in English (New Zealand) too
