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
Summer break is long, and not every day is sunny. On a rainy afternoon, these ten straight words give a young child a reason to sit down at the table for a few quiet minutes.
Read the list together first: Sun, Hot, Hat, Ice. Many of the words are three letters long and look a lot alike, so trace each one with a finger, always to the right or downward, and say it again once it is found.
Hat and Hot differ by one letter. Asking which is which is a quiet first lesson in reading carefully, and a good joke to share at the pool later.
