Thanksgiving Word Search Puzzle (fun, free printable PDF)

Thanksgiving is approaching quickly and once again I’m not prepared. But I did take the time to create this printable Thanksgiving word search puzzle.

It can be used by American and Canadian children. But Canadian children may ask, “Why is ‘Thursday’ in this puzzle?”

And that is because in the United States they have Thanksgiving on a Thursday (and in November).


Regardless of what country you are from I think you (or your children) will enjoy this puzzle.







Who is this word search for?

It is probably best suited for Grades 2-5, but I enjoyed it as an adult (not sure what that says about me??).

I’m sure you and your kids will enjoy searching for these hidden Thanksgiving words.
