About this word search
Crocus tends to be the first word on this list to show up in real life, pushing through park lawns while the daffodils are still in bud. Bike, Walk and Picnic come later, once the clocks go forward and the evenings stretch out.
In the fourteen by fourteen grid, words run across, down and diagonally, but never in reverse. Butterfly and Daffodil are long enough to spot quickly. Bud, Sun and Bee are trickier because a three-letter word can sit almost anywhere, so save them for last and check every diagonal.
In a classroom, pair the puzzle with a walk round the school grounds. Children tick off each word they can actually see or hear outside, then compare lists back at their desks.
