Father's Day Word Search, free printable PDF preview

The first Father's Day in the United States was held in Spokane, Washington, in 1910, thanks to Sonora Smart Dodd, who wanted to honor her father, a widower who raised six children. Every word in this grid runs across or down, so younger kids can spot DADDY, MENTOR and WISDOM without reading backwards.

Some puzzle books print word find on the cover and others print word search. This father's day grid works for either.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the word tie always associated with gifts for dads?

It became a default gift choice decades ago when most office jobs required men to wear formal business attire every day.

Are dad jokes actually a defined type of humor?

They are usually categorized as simple puns or anti-jokes that rely heavily on highly predictable wordplay.
