Squirrel Word Search, free printable PDF preview

A tree squirrel's nest of twigs and leaves has its own name, a DREY. In autumn a gray squirrel does not keep one big store of food; it hides nuts one at a time in hundreds of separate spots, and the ones it never finds again can sprout into new trees. This word find gathers eleven words from that busy life, from ACORN to TREETOP.

Frequently asked questions

Why do squirrels chew so much?

Their front INCISORS never stop growing, as in every RODENT, so gnawing on shells and bark keeps them worn down to a working length.

What is a baby squirrel called?

A KITTEN, or kit. Babies are usually born in a DREY or a hollow tree and stay there for several weeks before they explore.
