Do Word Searches Help Your Brain? Absolutely!

Some people believe that word searches may not benefit kids as they are more of a passive activity that does not require critical thinking or problem-solving skills. Additionally, some argue that word searches may not improve vocabulary or spelling skills as children are only searching for words that they already know. However, they are wrong!  Word searches can absolutely be beneficial when used purposefully and academically.
