Word search maker with ready-made topics
No word list at hand? Pick a curated topic such as animals, space, garden or travel and get a finished word search in seconds. The words are checked to suit children or seniors.
Choose the audience, difficulty and directions, then play online or print the puzzle with an answer key. Want to use your own vocabulary instead? The custom generator takes any word list.
Curated topics
Every topic comes with an age-appropriate word list, so you do not have to think of words yourself.
For kids and seniors
Kids get a friendly, colourful design; the seniors mode uses high contrast and large letters.
Size, directions, word list
Three grid sizes, three direction modes from across-and-down to all directions, and an option to hide the word list.
Play or print
Solve on screen with hints, or open the print preview and print the PDF with an answer key.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference to the custom word search generator?
This maker uses curated topic lists. The custom generator lets you type in your own words, for example vocabulary from class.
Can I print the word search?
Yes. Print opens a preview first; from there you can print or save an A4 PDF, with or without the answer key.
Do I need an account?
No. Everything works for free in the browser without signing up.
