  • Easy: 10 x 10 grid, eight words, across and down. Includes Nativity Words and Christmas Favorites.
  • Medium: 14 x 14 grid, twelve words, across, down and downward diagonals. Includes The Christmas Story and Winter at Christmas.
  • Hard: 18 x 18 grid, eighteen words, all directions including backwards. Includes Christmas Decorations and Christmas Kindness.

Printing and using the answer keys

Print page one of an individual PDF if you want to keep the answers separate. Page two shows every intended word highlighted. The complete PDF contains twelve pages: each puzzle followed by its answer key. Files use A4 paper; choose Fit to page for US Letter.

For younger readers, work together on an easy puzzle and read the words aloud first. The difficulty labels describe grid size and direction, rather than a fixed reading age.
