Two cozy Thanksgiving word search puzzles with big, clear letters and full solutions. Print them at home for the holiday table, a visit with grandparents, or a quiet afternoon activity.
2 puzzles and 2 solution pages
US letter PDF. No email needed.
What's inside
Each puzzle fills a whole page with a roomy 12 by 12 grid and 12 familiar holiday words. Words run only across, down or diagonally down, never backwards, so the puzzles stay relaxing from the first word to the last.
- Thanksgiving Table: turkey, gravy, stuffing, cranberry, pumpkin pie and the rest of the feast.
- Harvest Blessings: thankful words, crisp apples, cider and hayrides.
Ways to enjoy them
At the Thanksgiving table
Leave a few copies and a cup of pencils on the table while dinner is cooking. Grandparents and grandchildren can work on the same puzzle together, and it gives everyone something calm to do in the busiest hour of the day.
In assisted living or a nursing home
Activity directors can print as many copies as they need for a group session. The large letters and familiar words make the puzzles easy to start, and the solution pages make it simple to help anyone who gets stuck.
On a visit with an older parent
Bring two printed copies and do them side by side. It is an easy way to share an unhurried hour together. For more ideas, see our list of quiet activities to enjoy with elderly parents.
Printing tips
Print on standard US letter paper and choose "fit to page" in your printer settings. If the puzzles are for someone with low vision, a bright reading lamp beside the chair helps more than overhead lighting. Our guide to puzzles for low vision has more tips.
