About this word search
Summer in Britain is famously unreliable, which may explain why Shade and Parasol share a list with Barbecue and Hammock. These are words for the long school holiday, when the days are at their longest and there is time to fill.
In a fourteen by fourteen grid, words run across, down and on the diagonal, never backwards. Watermelon and Aeroplane are long and easy to anchor, while Hot and Tent take more searching. Flip flops and Ice cream lose their spaces.
Slip a printed copy into the beach bag or the glovebox. On a long car journey, a follow-up game works well: one person names a word from the list and the next names something beginning with its last letter.
