How to Make a Word Find Puzzle for a Mac
- 1). Open your Web browser on your computer (ie. Internet Explorer, Firefox or Safari). Type in the Web address for the word search creator (See Resources) and press enter. The word find web page will open.
- 2). After the new page opens, locate the place on the page where you can enter words. You will see that there are about 60 boxes into which you can enter words. This means that there will not be more than 60 words in the finished puzzle. Less than 60 words can be added if you want. Type the words into the boxes and press "Enter."
- 3). As the next page opens, notice that there is now a finished word find puzzle that includes all of the terms you included on the previous page. These words are spread throughout the puzzle and can be found backward, forward, diagonal, up, down and across.
- 4). You may want to have an answer key (especially if you are giving the puzzle to children), click on the "Answer Key PDF" button just below the puzzle. This will open a new page that allows you to see the words that are hidden in red.
- 5). Print the page or copy the URL at the top of the page. This Web page will be active for two months after the date you created the puzzle.
