This is a word search puzzle about the water cycle. The goal is to find the names of different parts and processes in the water cycle hidden in the grid of letters. Below are the words you need to find, along with their meanings to help you locate them:
-
Aquifer: A layer of rock or soil underground that holds water.
-
Groundwater: Water that is stored beneath the Earth’s surface.
-
Surface Water: Water found on the Earth’s surface, like in rivers, lakes, or oceans.

After finding all the words, you’ll have completed the puzzle.
