Word Search Puzzles for Young Einsteins

by Helene Hovanec

Sure, you've done regular word search puzzles, where you're given a list of words and just have to search through the diagram and circle each one when you find it. Piece of cake, right? Not these!

For example, in Hidden Riddles you must read the leftover letters to learn the answer to a riddle.

With each puzzle, you receive a special set of instructions, and for each word search, look across, up, down, and diagonally, both forward and backward. Think you've got it? Let's see!
