Word Search — Letter-scanning + spelling fluency

Word Search

For parents

What this teaches

Themed word grids — animals, fruits, colors, school. Tap the start letter, tap the end letter, and the word lights up. Levels grow the grid and the word count, then add diagonals, then reverse spellings, then bigger boards forever. Best level + lifetime score persist; total words found stack up over time.

Age: Best for ages 5-9

How to play

Pick a word from the list at the top.
Tap the first letter, then tap the last letter.
Diagonals and reverse spellings unlock as you level up.
Find every word to pass the level.

What to watch for

If your child gets stuck, point at the first letter of a word and let them scan outward. Recognising the start letter is the real reading skill the game trains.
