Easy space word search
Sun, moon, star, rocket and even an alien for little astronauts. Each of the ten words runs across or down in the small ten by ten grid, so young readers can manage it without help.
- Alien
- Comet
- Earth
- Mars
- Moon
- Planet
- Rocket
- Sky
- Star
- Sun
This is the same puzzle as on the printable sheet. Every word you find turns green and is crossed off the list.

About this word search
Space words are short and mostly familiar. Sun, Sky and Moon are things a child sees every day, and Alien adds a bit of mischief. Rocket and Planet are the longest at six letters.
Words only go across or down here, so a young child can follow every row with a finger without getting lost. Saying each word aloud before searching helps them remember what they are looking for.
On a clear evening, take the finished sheet outside and look for the Moon and a few stars together. Then ask your child which word on the list they would most like to visit.
