About this word search
Auld Lang Syne is a Scottish song with words by Robert Burns, and the title is old Scots for times long past. It is sung at midnight across much of the English-speaking world.
Every one of the eight directions is used here. Times Square, Auld Lang Syne and Sparkling juice are written without spaces, which makes them long anchors. Look for the J in Journal and January, and the K in Karaoke and Snacks.
Teenagers might enjoy using Reflection, Memories and Goals as prompts for a short journal entry on January 1.
