About this word search
Sad, Mad and Glad rhyme, which makes them easy to read together and fun to say. Point out the shared AD at the end before you start looking.
Every word in this ten-square grid runs right along a row or down a column. Take turns with your child: one of you finds a word, the other makes the face that goes with it.
Later, at bedtime or over dinner, ask which word fits the day best. Some days need two, Tired and Happy at the same time, and that is a good thing for a young child to hear.
