Use your noggin’ this Halloween season and try to solve our free Halloween Word Search. Our festive word search is the perfect puzzle for kindergarteners and first grade students. It features 10 different Halloween words to find. All the words are either vertical or horizontal (no diagonal words in this puzzle).
Hand out this Halloween Word search in class, at church or at home. It’s a great Halloween brain buster to keep young minds active and sharp (while celebrating a fun holiday).
Practice Spelling and Word Recognition With the Halloween Word Search
Word puzzles are great activities to help kids practice spelling. When you do a word search your brain looks for specific letters in a specific order to find correctly spelled words. Not only do they help practice spelling but they strengthen word recognition skills. Word searches are a great brain workout!
