It’s OK to stretch your mind a little, right? I noticed that there are a few automated versions on the web, but I’m not going to point you there, because they’re simply no fun. Right, so here’s you’ll find step by step instructions for making your own word searches.

Either way, you win! Instructions to make your own word search It’s a free printable, so go ahead and make your little Pikachu fan happy! Or occupied. You’ll find the resulting Pokemon word search here. I choose a theme that my son likes (Pokemon, you guessed correctly) and had fun (more than I would admit) to cram in as many words that I could. I’m all for making life a little easier if I can (in a modest sort of way, in a printable sort of way today), so I made my own template.I thought it would be a nice thing to share as more kids (and parents) would like to try. But Mr S was asking me to make a word search for him and, judging from his enthusiasm I could sense he would be asking for more. Don’t get me wrong, I prefer kids to ‘make their own’ instead of handing them every tool.

I really liked this idea and decided to make a template. Actually, this is what they did at school, as a fun language assignment. My son loves word searches, so he set out to make his own.
