Hello Fellow Puzzlers!
It's been a little while since my last newsletter back in February, and I've missed keeping in touch! I wanted to check in with an update on where Words Are Fun is headed.
You may remember that earlier this year, I was leaning into cozy mystery content — book reviews, reading guides, and cozy reading lists. After a lot of thought (and hearing from many of you), I've decided to step away from that direction. Words Are Fun is going back to what it's always been about at heart: puzzles, printables, and hands-on word fun.
That Means:
🧩 No more cozy mystery content — book reviews, reading guides, and The Cozy Corner have been removed from the site
✏️ A renewed focus on word searches, crosswords, and word scrambles
🎃 New puzzles on the way as we head into fall
New Puzzles Added to the Website
I've been quietly busy behind the scenes, so here's a catch-up on everything new since February!
Valentine's Day Word Search
I put together a Valentine's Day word search to bring a little extra love to the month of February. It's packed with sweet, seasonal words perfect for classrooms, card exchanges, or a quiet afternoon with someone special.
|
Winter Word Search
Whether you're snowed in or just love the season, my winter word search is filled with cozy, chilly-weather words to keep your mind warm while the temperature drops outside.
|
Halloween Word Search
Get in the spooky spirit with my Halloween word search! It's loaded with all things ghosts, ghouls, and trick-or-treating — a fun way to celebrate the season for puzzlers of all ages.
|
Christmas Word Search
My Christmas word search is here to help you get into the holiday spirit, one hidden word at a time. It's filled with classic Christmas terms that make it a great activity for the whole family.
|
Merry Christmas Word Search
I created this Merry Christmas word search as a companion to my other holiday puzzles — a fresh set of festive words to hunt for when you want to spread a little extra cheer.
|
Giant Christmas Word Search
For puzzlers who want an extra challenge, my giant Christmas word search packs in even more holiday words for a longer, more satisfying solve.
|
Christian Christmas Word Search
I wanted to create a Christmas word search that speaks to the true meaning of the season, so I put together this Christian Christmas word search filled with faith-centered holiday words.
|
A Christmas Carol Word Search
Inspired by the timeless Dickens classic, my A Christmas Carol word search is perfect for literature lovers and anyone who enjoys a good Scrooge-and-ghosts kind of holiday story.
|
Christmas Crossword Puzzle for Kids
I designed this Christmas crossword puzzle just for kids, with clues and words that are simple enough for younger puzzlers to enjoy the holiday fun on their own.
|
Christmas Word Scramble
Rounding out my Christmas puzzle collection, this Christmas word scramble is a fun way to test your holiday vocabulary by unscrambling festive words letter by letter.
|
Hanukkah Word Search
I'm excited to have added a Hanukkah word search to the site, celebrating the Festival of Lights with words tied to the holiday's rich traditions and history.
|
Hanukkah Crossword Puzzle
Alongside the word search, I created a Hanukkah crossword puzzle so there's a puzzle for every kind of solver looking to celebrate the holiday.
|
Hanukkah Word Scramble
And to complete the set, my Hanukkah word scramble offers one more fun way to engage with the holiday through words and letters.
|
Computer Terms Word Scramble
For something a little different, I created a computer terms word scramble, great for anyone who wants to brush up on tech vocabulary while having fun.
|
SEO Word Search
And for my fellow website nerds, I put together an SEO word search — a lighthearted way to review search-engine-optimization terms while taking a break
from the screen.

Thank you for sticking with me through the changes, and for your patience while I figured out what Words Are Fun should really be. I'm excited to get back to what I love most: making puzzles for you to enjoy.
Happy puzzling,
