This Giant Thanksgiving word search is for anyone who looks at a regular word search and thinks, “That was fun, but I need more words!” I wanted this puzzle to be a bigger Thanksgiving challenge, with plenty of hidden words to keep kids—and probably a few adults—searching for a while.
The word list brings together all kinds of Thanksgiving favorites, from traditional foods and fall activities to familiar holiday symbols and celebrations. With more words hiding in the puzzle, you’ll definitely want to look carefully. That last missing word always seems to be sitting right in front of you!
Set out copies while Thanksgiving dinner is cooking, add one to the kids’ table, or turn it into a friendly family competition after everyone has eaten. It’s also great for classrooms and homeschool activities before Thanksgiving break. Grab a pencil, get comfortable, and settle in because this isn’t one of those word searches you’ll finish in two minutes!
