Free Winter Word Search Printable for Kids (with Three Levels of Difficulty)

Free Winter Word Search Printable for Kids Post Preview: You’ll find a free download with a winter word search set with three different levels of difficulty. There is also an option of color graphics or blackline graphics. 

While the cold of winter is not one of my favorite things, I do think that word searches are pretty fabulous.  If your kids love winter, word searches, or, even better yet – both, then they might love completing this Winter Word Search that you can download and print.

I first made the original winter word search almost five years ago. If that’s the version you want, you’ll still be able to grab it here.

However, I decided this year to add more levels of difficulty in order to have a version for a large variety of ages. In this new set, I have also included both versions with color graphics and blackline graphics that can be colored in too. So many options!

If you prefer, however, the blackline versions of the puzzle could also be printed on festive, cool winter colored papers instead of plain white paper.

Free Winter Word Search Printable Set for Kids

As I already mentioned, there are three different versions of the word search. They can all be found in the same download. The older version of the printable is also still available, but it is in a separate download.

Easy Winter Word Find Printable

This version has large letters and only six winter words to search for. This version of the winter word find is perfect for kids who are just starting to be able to do word searches.

Words can be found up and down and left to right.

Terms found in this version:

• Winter
• Cold
• Snow
• Hat
• Coat
• Mittens

Winter Word Find Printable (Middle Version)

This version has smaller letters than the easy version and includes 12 winter words to search for. Words can be found up and down and left to right.

Winter Word Find Printable (Difficult Version)

The most difficult of the three versions has 24 winter-themed words. There is a version of the 24 term word search in the new packet with both color and blackline graphics choices.

There is also a separate download for the old version of the word search, which is also the 24-word version. It was originally made in January 2014 and published on The Homeschool Classroom back before I combined all four of my sites into Real Life at Home. So the older version still has The Homeschool Classroom copyright information on it. (The URL on it redirects to Real Life at Home.)

The older version looks like this:

Words that can be found in the more difficult version of the Winter Word Search can be found going up, down, and diagonal.
