Every puzzle here can be played easy. On the Relaxed level the words run only across and down, never backwards or diagonally, and the whole word list sits in front of you. It is set in big, clear large print, so it is gentle on the eyes as well as gentle to solve. Free to play in your browser or print.

Easy does not have to mean childish. The Relaxed level keeps the search simple, words left to right and top to bottom, with nothing hidden backwards, but the subjects are the same warm ones as the rest of the site: the flower garden, the old hymns, the Sunday kitchen. So a puzzle stays a pleasant few minutes rather than a chore, and there is a little something to enjoy in the words themselves.

Ready for more when you are? Every puzzle also has a Classic and a Challenging level, and the print stays large whichever you choose. Each level uses its own selection of the puzzle’s words too, so a favorite is worth replaying as you step it up, never quite the same grid twice. If reading small text is the real trouble, our large-print page explains how the whole site is built for it.

Frequently asked

What makes these word searches easy?

On the Relaxed level the words run only across and down, never backwards or diagonally, and the whole word list sits in front of you. It is a gentle find, not a hunt.

Are they large print?

Yes. Large print is the default on every level. The letters in the grid are the biggest text on the page, and the A / A+ / A++ buttons make everything larger still.

Can I make them a bit harder later?

Yes. Every puzzle has three levels. Move up to Classic for diagonals and backwards words, or Challenging when you want a real search. The letters stay large the whole way.

Can I print them?

Yes. Every puzzle prints as a clean, large-print sheet to solve with a pen. No sign-up needed.
