Intermediate Word Search, free printable PDF preview

A step up from the easy sheets and a long way short of cruel. The words run to six or seven letters, the grid is fuller, and a few of them turn corners you have to look for. GARDEN, BRIDGE, SILVER, WINTER. It is the puzzle for a coffee break rather than a quick glance.

The phrase word find turns up about as often as word search, so treat these 11 intermediate words as whichever you prefer.

Frequently asked questions

How does this compare to an easy puzzle?

The words are longer and the grid is denser, so it takes a little hunting, but nothing here is hidden unfairly.

Are the words placed diagonally?

No. They run across and down, with a few backwards or bottom to top, which is what lifts it above the beginner sheets without making it genuinely hard.
