About this word search
Strawberry, Raspberry and Blueberry all end in berry, but botanically only the blueberry is a true berry. The Banana, oddly enough, counts as one too, while the strawberry does not. It is a fact older children love to spring on their parents.
In this fourteen by fourteen grid, fruit lies across, down or diagonally, and every word reads forwards. The three berries are easy to confuse once you have found one, so check the first letters carefully. Fig and Kiwi are short.
At snack time, cut up a few of the fruits on the list and let children taste them with their eyes closed before matching each one to its word.
