Harry Potter Word Search [FREE Printable]

If you’re a Harry Potter fan, check out this printable Harry Potter word search. I recently finished reading the Harry Potter series, and I liked it WAY more than I expected. I loved it so much I decided to create a free printable Harry Potter word search puzzle. It is not specific to one book, but instead features words from the various Harry novels.


It is a free word search puzzle in PDF format that you can print off and enjoy.

Note: In February 2021 I updated the PDF word search in order to remove the word ‘butterbeer’ from the list of words. The darn word snuck in there but wasn’t actually hidden in the grid. Sorry for any frustration that may have caused trying to find a word that wasn’t there. (Perhaps it put on Harry’s invisibility cloak?)

I also completed a “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” characters word scramble.

And a “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” word search puzzle. A fun word search dedicated to Harry’s second year at Hogwarts.





And if you want a fun Harry Potter “sensory” activity you can try and track down some “Butterbeer” flavored ice cream. Butterbeer is a beverage that Harry and the other magical folks drink in the wizardly town of Hogsmeade . I recently found a local company that serves up Butterbeer ice cream, and it sure was tasty!







I hope you enjoy this free Harry Potter word search, but if you have any issues downloading the PDF please leave a comment below.
