From George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, these patriotic word searches introduce children to every president of the United States, plus their first ladies, and the White House.

So while kids work their eagle eyes trying to solve the puzzles, they’ll be learning about US history, too.
Super Word Search Puzzles for Kids
Play hide-and-seek on a piece of paper! The words hide in the jumbled letters of a grid, and you seek, by looking at the lists below. It's just a matter of noticing the words hidden in the grid by hunting them down, up, backward, and diagonally. Once you find them, circle them, then locate the phrases they make up. All 56 puzzles demand great detective work, and each rewards you with a different secret message.

Children will have a great time word--and dinosaur--hunting. The author lives in New York, NY.

Presidential Crosswords
Puzzles are a great way to learn about a subject, and what could be better during a presidential election year than crosswords about America’s leaders and their spouses? Because they’re so much fun to do, kids will easily absorb and remember the historical facts each one conveys. And these crosswords have a smart twist: instead of solving clues to come up with the right words, children are actually given words to fit into the grid. Their challenge is to figure out where the answer goes. Every puzzle features an entertaining story with phrases that appear in ALL CAPS and bold type. These are the words that belong in the grid, and by counting the letters, kids can begin to place them correctly.
Funny
A tour de force, Funny is a masterpiece of poetic, as well as philosophic and comic, invention. It creates a musing world, where the issues are philosophical but the focus is always on people, on our most private ways of balancing our accounts. The poems are psychological; tender and humane, and somehow ruthless. This is poetry that swarms with ideas, that revels in rhythmic intricacy and literary references, but is also clear as a bell, and tells marvelous stories.
