ULTIMATE WORD SEARCH BOOK FOR KIDS: 100+ Word Search Puzzles for Kids Ages 6-10 by Florence EmmaMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ultimate Word Search Book for Kids by Florence Emma; 112 pp.
Growing up several decades ago my favorite pastime on the weekend was to solve the wordsearch and other puzzles in the Sunday newspaper. Now with the proliferation of technology and publications there are several online and offline sources for word search puzzles. Unfortunately most of these puzzles are aimed at adults or seniors and few are available for kids. In this realm Florence Emma, a farmer turned author has come up with the Ultimate Word Search Book for Kids, a 112-page volume containing over 100 puzzles to stimulate, and challenge children.
The book starts off with a brief, easy-to-understand introduction to the book for both parents and children. “Inside, you’ll find over 100-word searches across 20 awesome themes that kids ages 6 – 10 love,” writes Emma. The themes include camping, space, farm, safari, dinosaur, food, nature, bugs, etc. Each puzzle is aimed at improving spelling, curiosity, free thinking, and creativity among children. The focus on spelling is undeniable. Each puzzle only has six small 4-5 letter words to find in a 6 x 6 letter grid. The rest of the page is peppered with interesting illustrations and cartoons on the puzzles theme. This makes it easy and attractive for the target age group.
I’d say this book would be ideal for kids play time, car rides, and even during break between homework. If your kid is struggling with reading, spelling, or vocabulary, this would help jumpstart learning.
