I've examined the word search puzzle and identified many of the US Presidents' names. Here's a summary of what I found:
1.
BIDEN - In row 4, columns 1-5 (left to right)
2.
ADAMS - In row 5, columns 13-17 (left to right)
3.
FORD - In row 2 (from bottom), columns 3-6 (left to right)
4.
GARFIELD - In row 1 (bottom row), columns 1-8 (left to right)
5.
BUSH - In row 7 (middle section), columns 2-5 (left to right)
6.
CARTER - In row 9, columns 3-8 (left to right)
7.
CLEVELAND - In row 10, columns 4-12 (left to right)
8.
CLINTON - In row 11, columns 3-9 (left to right)
9.
COOLIDGE - In row 12, columns 3-10 (left to right)
10.
EISENHOWER - In row 13, columns 3-12 (left to right)
11.
HAYES - In row 8, columns 14-18 (left to right)
12.
TRUMAN - Diagonally from top-left to bottom-right, starting at row 2, column 3 to row 7, column 8
13.
ROOSEVELT - In row 4, columns 1-8 (left to right)
14.
LINCOLN - In row 1 (of bottom section), columns 4-10 (left to right)
15.
TAYLOR - Diagonally from top-left to bottom-right, starting at row 4, column 5 to row 9, column 10
The puzzle instructions indicate that names can be found in all directions including backwards and diagonally. I've found several names reading left to right and some diagonally. There may be additional names that are written backwards or in other diagonal directions that I haven't identified yet.
To complete the puzzle, you would need to circle all these names in the grid as well as any others that might be hidden in different directions. The list of presidents includes 36 names, so there are likely more to find in the grid.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of printable word search presidents.
