The Glove: a free large-print word search

Baseball glove word search — free and large-print — deep in the leather, the webbing, the pocket, and the soft worn mitt that fits like a second hand.

About The Glove

A baseball glove is as personal as a signature. Players oil the leather, work the pocket with a ball and a rubber band, and sleep with the thing under a mattress to hold the break just right. By the time a glove is truly broken in, it has shaped itself entirely to the hand that owns it — a season or two of catches pressed into every crease.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last — the trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps — never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
