This free printable Thanksgiving Word Search for kids is a fun and educational way to celebrate the Thanksgiving season. Filled with Thanksgiving-themed words, this unique word search is shaped like a Thanksgiving turkey. Kids of all ages will love hunting for the words hidden on the turkey. It’s also a fun idea to keep kids busy on Thanksgiving while waiting for the feast.
Thanksgiving Word Search For Kids
The free printable includes two puzzles and the accompanying answer key for each. The level one puzzle has 15 Thanksgiving-inspired words to search for and level two has 25 words to hunt for. With two levels of play, you can choose the right puzzle level for your child.
Word search puzzles are an excellent way for kids to improve problem-solving skills and spelling. Solving word searches also helps to further improve language learning and increase vocabulary. And the best part is that all of this educational stuff is done under the guise of having fun. My kids love to solve word searches.
The Thanksgiving turkey shape of this word search makes it a fun Thanksgiving activity for holiday parties or at home. It’s also a quick and easy idea to fill time during Thanksgiving break. Word searches are excellent for road trips, plane trips or just for staying at home.
Sometimes we make word searches a game – to see who can complete the puzzle first. Other times, we leave the puzzle on the kitchen table for the kids to work on here and there. However you choose to work on the word search, your kids are sure to like the fun shape.

If you don’t want to be added to the list, you can also purchase the word search in my Etsy shop.
Tip – both puzzles AND the answer keys to both puzzles will download together in one PDF, but you only need to print the pages you want. You can also print these in black and white to save ink, if you like.
Happy Thanksgiving!
