About This Free Printable Crossword

Meet the perfect first crossword. This easy kids crossword uses a compact 9x8 grid with eight answers pulled straight from a child's day: the classroom, the playground, colors, and favorite stories. Every clue is one short sentence written for early readers, and the answers are words six-to-eight-year-olds use constantly, which means quick wins and big smiles instead of frustration.

Parents print it for calm-down time, restaurant waits, and the magical pre-dinner hour. Teachers keep a stack for morning work, fast finishers, and substitute folders. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to install; just print on regular letter or A4 paper and hand over a pencil. The answer key prints on its own page so grown-ups can help without giving the game away. When your young solver finishes and asks for another, that is what the second easy kids crossword and our whole shelf of printable crossword puzzles are for.

How to Print This Crossword Puzzle

  1. Choose Letter or A4 paper to match your printer, and a clue size that fits your solvers.
  2. Press Print Puzzle for the blank grid and clues, or Print Answer Key for the solved page. To download a PDF, choose “Save as PDF” as the destination.
  3. Print as many copies as you need — free for classrooms, families, libraries, and road trips. The answer key always prints separately.

Answer Key

The answers live on their own page: press Print Answer Key above, or use View answer key to check the solved grid on screen without printing. Stuck on a single word? The answer key lists every across and down answer next to its clue.
