I just found a website where you can print off free word search puzzles. There are many to choose from. They have them for adults and children too. I have printed off quite a few. Here is the link: http://www.puzzles.ca/wordsearch.html

I love to do word search puzzles. I remember once when I was in the hospital after one of my miscarrages. I was in a room with another lady who just miscarried also. Back then they had a cart that came around each day. The cart had candy, books, magazines etc. Me and this lady each purchased the same word search book and we would tr to see who could finish the page first. There were no TV's in rooms back then. Thanks for the site. I have used it many times in the past and it is a good site. Hope you Have a wonderfu day.

I no longer purchase the books as the usually sit around and collect dust. But this is a good way to print off one or two to take along on a trip or to do in the evening when it is quiet.

This was back in the 80's when there was not internet to just print them off. It sure helped the time pass by faster to play the wordsearch game. LOL It was a sad time in my life. I lost 4 babies to miscarrige back then.

Huggers to you. I know how it feels to lose a child to miscarriage. I lost one when I was 18. If I had carried to term, he would have been disabled per my conversation with my doctor.

I have been spending a lot of time going to the doctor's with my DIL and grandkids. It would be a good idea to bring a couple of these along. I never thought to do that. LOL.

I never thought to bring Word Search Puzzles in the Doctors office! That is a great way for the time to fly by, and also a great way for kids to keep quiet when waiting as well! LOL Great idea. :)

Thanks for the tip elusive. While word search puzzles are my favorites there are times that I like to do a couple to break up the "monotony" of working sudoku, text twist, or what word. Have made a note of the site and will check it out when I have time left over...hehe. +

I keep looking at the sudoku puzzles and scratch my head. My mother was one that did many different word and numeral puzzles and still does. I am not into numbers. What is time left over? I usually use that time to sleep.

I do enjoy word searches! :) I would sit with my grandpa and help him find words when I was younger. Funny, there were also times that he would hand it to me because he couldn't find something. I was pretty proud of myself when I found it right away. But I wish that they would have a website that you could do it on, instead of printing it out. LOL But that would be me...wanting to do everything on the computer. ha ha

That would definately save on paper and trees too. Maybe there is one out there. If you find it, let me know!

Good find. I spent nearly a minute on the first one and choked because it is timed! I hate timed tests. I always choke.

I love all kinds of "word" puzzles. I enjoy crosswords, fill-it-ins, but my favorite are probable words searches. I have always dreamed of making a bunch of them and having a book of them sold. I know, silly dream. Thanks for the link, it looks great. I'll have to check it out more.

Thanks for sharing the link. I like doing word searches and my grandmother does too. I will share this link with her and maybe she can print some off for her to do too. She usually buys the books and does them. I love doing them but just haven't had the time lately.

Pretty cool, but I wonder if there is a way to complete puzzles like this and keep them but without marking on them and ruining it / constant erasing! Thanks for the link, seems like it will be fun. Got to check it out!

Thanks for the link. I've done a few from there. My fathers daily life is doing maybe 25 or more daily. As he does so many I buy his books at the Dollar Stores. One dollar each is a great buy for the puzzles. I prefer crossword puzzles more. I do a book a month at most. Doing these has increased my knowledge tremendously in the years also. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Thank you—this is going to provide hours of fun! My daughter and I both love doing these. We get the love from my dad- He enjoys them also- I buy him a new book every year for Fathers Day. This is great! I’m going to show my daughter the website and let her print off a few to work on. Tomorrow is Bring your daughter to work day in NY—Not sure if it is everywhere. So I just found something for her to do for a hour or so! Again thanks! These look great and fun fun fun!
