Word search for spring

I recently realized that although I have word searches for fall, winter, and summer, I didn’t have one for spring. Maybe all the pollen made me lose my mind and not get that done sooner. With this post, however, I officially have a free Spring Word Search Printable Set.

Just like with the April Word Search Printable set, this free download actually includes two different versions of the Spring word search. There is an easier version and a harder version.

In addition to that, each of those has two versions. In one version, the letters are in a grid and in the other, they are not.

You won’t have to pick the version you want to do before you download. You will just download the free set and then pick out the one that will be the best fit for your children or students and print only that one.

The easier version of the Spring word search printable contains eight words that are associated with Spring, as well as coloring areas with a butterfly and with flowers. The harder version of the word search has 15 Spring-themed words, as well as coloring areas with a butterfly and with a backpack full of flowers. (If you want a full butterfly coloring page, I have a free one right here!)

If you prefer, this puzzle could also be printed on festive spring colored papers instead of plain white paper.

Spring-themed Words Included in the Spring Word Search Printable

The easier version has eight words. The words can be found going up and down and left to right.

• Spring
• March
• April
• May
• Rain
• Flowers
• Windy
• Bloom

The harder version includes all of the words above plus seven more Spring-themed words. The words go up and down, left to right, and diagonally. The additional words in the harder version include:

• Garden
• Plants
• Seeds
• Sprout
• Birds
• Butterfly
• Green

Both versions include an answer key. Since the packet also includes a terms of use page, this free packet is seven pages long.

I love word searches. Creating and sharing themed word searches is a lot of fun, too! That’s why I created this spring word search printable for you to use at home or in the classroom. I hope you enjoy!

The words in this puzzle are all spring-related and not specific to any spring holiday. You can find an Easter word search here with both secular and religious versions.

Benefits of word searches

Word searches aren’t just an easy substitute teacher activity or a screen-free way to keep your kids busy for a few minutes.

Some word search benefits include:

• Improved letter and pattern recognition
• Improved spelling
• Improved working memory
• Improved attention to detail
• Improved focus and concentration skill
• Increased vocabulary

Word searches are particularly beneficial for elementary students and English language learners. Word searches can be valuable for adults, too, especially older adults.

And, of course, word searches are an easy no-prep way to keep your kids busy. They’re portable which makes them a great screen-free activity for doctor’s visits, restaurants, and airplane trips.

To make the word search easier to use on the go, make sure to pack a clipboard for your little one!

These printables are available free for personal and classroom use. You are welcome to make as many copies as you’d like for your own children, students, scouts, etc. as long as you are personally organizing the activity.

Please do not redistribute the digital files or printouts to other adults for use with activities they are organizing. Just send them to this page so they can download their own copies! (Yes – it’s fine to leave them with a substitute teacher. Please just don’t give them to other teachers for their classroom use. Thanks to the considerate folks who’ve asked for clarification!)

A quick and easy way to share these word searches is by taking a second to Pin them now. Follow this link to open the Pin on Pinterest for super easy Pinning!

Both word searches have the same set of words and share an answer key. There are 20 spring-related words to search and find. Words can be hidden forwards, backwards, and on the diagonal. Words can also share letters with other words. Don’t worry – the answer key is included!

Download links are located below each preview image. I’ve highlighted the links with a grey box to make them easier to find! Please do not print the preview image – it’s a low resolution file that will look terrible if printed.
