What’s inside
Printable Arctic crossword puzzles for kids in 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade. Three themed crosswords with written clues and a word bank at the bottom of each page, so kids can spell each answer, read the clues and fill the grid across and down. The three pages step up from Easy to Medium to Challenging, and each one has its own answer page, so kids can check their work or a grown-up can mark it in seconds.
