Falling Leaves: a free online word search

Falling leaves word search, free and playable online right now. Out in the amber woods, maples blaze scarlet and every gust sends a fresh drift swirling down.

About Falling Leaves

The sugar maple is the official tree of New York, Vermont, West Virginia and Wisconsin, and its leaves turn yellow, orange and red depending on the sun and the cold nights. Birch leaves go clear yellow instead, while oaks fade to russet and hold on well into November, long after the maples along the road have dropped theirs.
