A grown-up reads each food and place aloud. Children find the words, then talk about which foods they have tried.
What is the Holiday Foods Around the World Word Search?

One page with a 10 by 10 letter grid and 10 picture cards: latkes for Hanukkah, tamales, buñuelos and ponche from Mexico, panettone from Italy, mochi and soba from Japan, stollen from Germany, dumplings from China and pavlova from Australia. Words go across and down. Answer key included.
Can I use the Holiday Foods Around the World Word Search at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Kindergarten to 2nd Grade Holidays Around the World resources are there?
⌄
9 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 30 Holidays Around the World resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Holidays Around the World activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Holidays Around the World resources for?
⌄
These are written for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 5-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Holidays Around the World resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
