About this word search

Closet and Yard are typically American words. In British English the first might be a wardrobe or cupboard, and the second is often called a garden. Attic and Basement also show how many American houses are built, with space above and below the main floors.

Search across, down and diagonally, but never backwards. Living room is written without a space. Bathroom and Basement both start with BA and have eight letters, so check the letters that follow.

As a follow-up, children can sketch a floor plan of their own home or apartment and label each room with a word from the puzzle.
