About this worksheet
Eight easy Christmas words in a 10 by 10 grid, across and down only: JOY, ELF, TOY, BOW, CARD, CANDY, COOKIE and SANTA. The words are three to six letters long, big enough for kindergarten and first grade fingers to trace. Answers are marked on page 2. It suits ages 4 to 6, and little ones can count the pictures with a finger. Red, green and gold make a classic Christmas palette.
Tips for using it
- Add white for snow.
- Make a three-page packet per child: one word search, one maze and one math or reading page at their level. It fills a quiet 20 minutes.
- Print the answer keys once and keep them in a folder; the kids can check their own word searches and mazes.
- For a mixed-age family, give everyone the same theme at a different level: the picture word search for the 5-year-old, the Christmas Challenge word search for the 9-year-old.
