About Large Print Word Searches

Most printable word searches are made for ink savings, not for people. Twenty-by-twenty grids, pale grey letters, word lists in six-point type — fine at twenty-five, miserable at seventy-five, and impossible with macular degeneration.

Large Print Word Searches exists to do one thing properly: word search puzzles you can actually read. Every puzzle here fills a full page with a smaller grid of much bigger letters — roughly half an inch tall on paper — printed dark on clean white. The whole site, on paper and on screen, is set in Atkinson Hyperlegible, the typeface the Braille Institute designed for readers with low vision.

What you'll find here

Seasonal and themed puzzles, easy grids where words only run across and down, genuinely hard grids for sharp-eyed solvers who just prefer big print, and a free makerthat turns any word list into a large print puzzle. Every puzzle downloads as a print-ready PDF with the answer key included as page two — no sign-up, no watermark.

Free means free

Print, photocopy and share anything on this site for personal, classroom, library or care-home use. No sign-ups, no watermarks, no "premium" versions of the good puzzles.

Have a theme you'd love to see, or a puzzle that isn't working on your printer? We're a small independent site and we read everything: hello@largeprintwordsearches.com.
