That sounds like a good idea, Liztress! :D I'm sure if I played with puzzles more as a kid I might be a whiz at it than I am now xD the rubix cube still taunts me at times :lol:

But both my boys love to do puzzles.

Oh, Knerd, where did you find the word search puzzle maker at? I actually want to make a few for my kids over the summer. Got to keep them on their toes. xD
I used to know a site but I've forgotten. I'm sure you could find one through a Google search.

OMG I still have my rubix cube. I never did solve it though. The thing came with directions on how to solve it but I told myself I wouldn't look at them until after I seriously tried to do it by myself.

I'm a member of a few teacher's websites that have basic word search generators. I'd link you to them, but the one I used here isn't open to the public. :sweat: You should be able to find some basic ones online, though! I know there are a bunch around, so google could help you out.

And I can't wait to see more submissions soon! It looks like a lot of you guys have been busy, I just haven't gotten many in my inbox yet. :yes:

Thats good to hear :) what with video games incorporating puzzle-themes, I find it refreshing to go back and revisit some of the classics like Sudoku or cross-words -- heck, even Tetris!

Ah, it's alright. I saw that the discovery channel site has one.

I hope to have these done and sent to you some time tomorrow. :)

Haha :lol: Yes! I am similar! Thats the pride of a person who wants to solve a rubrix cube right off the bat xD I ended up looking up a few youtube hints/tips and attempted to memorize the "algorithms".... I, too, did not want to read the directions ;)

This is going to be tough, since I lack the knowledge of the first puzzle. XD I know the theme, but... Not the names. >.>;

That's kind of how I'm doing the hard puzzle. Once I figured out the theme, I did a bunch of searching to come up with the words.

Question.

Can words be spelled backwards? Or are all words spelled forward?

I hate the backwards ones, they're always the most difficult to find. >.<

Dannggggg Knerd!
I thought this would be a sinch because I lovee word puzzles - but DANG! This was a toughie!
Definitely challenging, which I love - but finding the theme of the puzzle, and then wondering if the words you're finding fits with the theme, is so hard! I mean, even the Easy was challenging lol
Definitely going to get my brain moving doing these this event!
Hopefully I'll get it at least somewhat close xD;
Knowing how many words to find helps, most definitely :3
I think a clue at what the theme is would be a little helpful though ;P
