Jack and the Beanstalk: Printable Word Search Puzzles
Print out the word search puzzle with words about Jack and the Beanstalk -- you have a choice between an easy word search for younger children and a more challenging word search for older kids and adults.
Encourage the children to find and circle the words listed. I think word searches are a great way to expand and practice vocabulary words and reinforce themes you are studying.
