About this word search

Castles are full of words young children love: the King and Queen, the Tower and the Moat, the Gate and the Wall. A cardboard crown makes the puzzle feel like a game.

Moat, Flag, Wall and Gate are four letters each. All ten words travel left to right or downwards. Sword has a silent W, which is worth pointing out, and Queen starts with a Q.

Afterwards, build a castle from blocks or boxes and add a moat, a tower and a flag.
