Word Search Puzzles Calendars

Search and solve—with nearly 160 puzzles here, there’s plenty of brain-stimulating pleasure to be had! Each one of these entertaining word searches focuses on a particular subject, with many arranged in a shape suitable to the topic. For example, “Hitting Below the Belt” looks like a pair of shorts, and the words refer to things worn at or below the waist, like swimming trunks and skirt. The shamrock-shaped “Greenery Scenery” goes green with mint, moss, and Kermit the Frog. And “Things to Do While Sitting” includes fly a plane and check e-mail. All the puzzles contain a word list to guide you as you look, as well as the answers if there are a few you can’t find.
