Learn fall vocabulary words with these free printable autumn word searches. I designed each puzzle myself with my readers in mind.
These are great for preschool, kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders. Each puzzle has 6 to 8 hidden terms for your child to find.
Your child can circle each term using a marker or color in each one on the sheet. There are even fun designs in the boarder that kids can color as they word on the puzzle!
Word Searches
On the first puzzle, your child can find 8 hidden vocabulary terms. Apple themed words include: basket, tree, fruit, pick, red, seed, stem, and apple.
Hidden within the fall word search are the words: apple, foliage, cool, windy, leaf, acorn, pumpkin, and harvest!
On the next picture puzzle, your child can find 7 hidden words. Different trees including: Aspen, Beech, Poplar, Oak, Maple, Ash, and Birch. It would be fun to head outside and hunt for different leaves after you complete the word search!
I love how this word search gets children excited about different types of trees! Make sure to check out these additional fall leaf printable activities.
