Make Your Own Word Search

Word Search Maker

IMPORTANT:

  • Spaces in words count as 2 separate words, and will be hidden separately. So make sure to combine them into one word. For example: enter CandyCanes (instead of Candy Canes), enter StPatricksDay (instead St Patricks Day).
    • NOTE: You can now hide "CandyCanes", then show "Candy Canes" by editing the word in the Fun Options below.
  • If the build process cannot find a place for the word quickly, that word will be removed from the list. This can be a problem with long word lists. To help avoid this, make larger grids.
  • One list of words can make hundreds of different puzzles! Change word orientation (diagonal, backwords) and placement of word list on wordsearch.
  • Having a key has been requested - and NOW A KEY IS AVAILABLE! (see below)
  • Be sure to tell your friends! Word of mouth helps us a bunch!!
