What’s inside
A printable Valentine’s Day word search for kids in 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade. Three themed word search puzzles with the word list printed under each grid.
The Valentine’s Day words to find
Here is every word in the set. Easy (8 words): Hug, Red, Card, Kind, Love, Rose, Share and Teddy. Medium (10 words): Red, Card, Kind, Love, Heart, Share, Teddy, Cookie, Friend and Letter. Challenging (12 words): Card, Kind, Candy, Heart, Share, Teddy, Cookie, Letter, Ribbon, Mailbox, February and Chocolate.

Who it is for
It suits 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders (about ages 7 to 10), and it builds letter recognition, spelling and focus without feeling like a drill. A note for grown-ups: A class Valentine mailbox, where each child gets cards from everyone, is a classic friendship activity.
