To solve this word search puzzle, we need to find all the months of the year hidden in the grid. The words can be horizontal (left to right), vertical (top to bottom), or diagonal.
Here is the step-by-step solution to find each month:
1.
SEPTEMBER: Look at the very first row (Row 1). Starting from the second letter, it spells
S-E-P-T-E-M-B-E-R.
2.
MAY: Look at Row 2. Near the end of the row, you will see
M-A-Y.
3.
JUNE: This one is already highlighted in red for us! It is vertical in Column 6, going down from Row 5 to Row 8 (
J-U-N-E).
4.
JANUARY: Look at Row 9. Starting from the second letter, it spells
J-A-N-U-A-R-Y.
5.
APRIL: Look at Row 10. Starting from the third letter, it spells
A-P-R-I-L.
6.
FEBRUARY: Look at Row 4. Starting from the 7th letter, it spells
F-E-B-R-U-A-R-Y.
7.
MARCH: Look at Row 6. Starting from the 2nd letter, it spells
M-A-R-C-H.
8.
OCTOBER: Look at Row 11 (the one starting with S). Starting from the 4th letter, it spells
O-C-T-O-B-E-R.
9.
NOVEMBER: Look at Row 12 (the one starting with Y). Starting from the 3rd letter, it spells
N-O-V-E-M-B-E-R.
10.
DECEMBER: Look at Row 13 (the one starting with L). Starting from the 3rd letter, it spells
D-E-C-E-M-B-E-R.
11.
JULY: Look at the very last row (Row 15). At the very end of the row, it spells
