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.
