About these word searches

These bonfire night wordsearches come in three levels: the easy one hides 8 short words such as Bang, Coat and Fire in a 9 × 9 grid, reading only across and down, the medium one has 12 words in a 12 × 12 grid and adds diagonals and the hard one packs 16 longer words into a 15 × 15 grid, in all eight directions including backwards.

Easy suits early readers (around ages 5–7) who are learning to spot letter patterns; medium and hard work well for ages 7–9 and up, as a quiet-time activity, an early-morning task or a vocabulary warm-up before a topic lesson.

Every sheet prints on one page in A4 or US Letter, with the word list under the grid and a matching answer sheet. Each grid is checked with a solver, so every word in the list is in it exactly once.

  • Start younger children on easy and let them tick off each word as they find it.
  • Print the answer sheet separately so they can check their own work.
  • Colour in the pictures and the found words with crayons or highlighters.
