Easy transport word search

Car, bus, bike and boat: something to do at the bus stop. The ten words in this small ten by ten grid run only across or down, so young children can find all of them quickly.

About this word search

Young children often know transport words from toy cars and picture books. Car, Bus, Van and Jet are three letters each, so they are a good place to start.

The words only run left to right or top to bottom in this ten by ten grid. Train is the longest, at five letters. Ship and Tram both have four. Read each word out loud, then point to its first letter.

At a bus stop or on a train, ask your child to spot each vehicle from the list out of the window.
