With both Lincoln’s birthday and Presidents’ Day coming up next month, an Abraham Lincoln Crossword Puzzle could be a great educational addition to your kids’ day sometime in the next month.
Whether you’ve been doing an in depth study of President Lincoln or you’re planning to do this puzzle as just an afternoon activity, the answers will either be things that your children already may know about Abraham Lincoln or they will be facts that they should be able to easily find in books or online. It can present a great beginning opportunity in how to research, especially since the answers will not be difficult to find.
Some great books and resources for kids about Abraham Lincoln (each item just $5.50 or less!):
- Who was Abraham Lincoln?

Hi, there is a mistake in your puzzle…Gettysburg is spelled wrong, so you’d just have to shift the right side of the puzzle up a bit to make it work. Otherwise cool stuff! 🙂
Yeah, I mentioned that in the post. Maybe if I can find the original file that I made sometime, then I’ll have to try to remember to go fix it. 🙂
