Word Search Maker

Pembuat Cari Kata

Type the words to hide and the maker hides them in a square of letters for you, making it again every time you change the list. Pick easy, medium or hard, then download it as an A4 PDF to print, in Bahasa Melayu or English. Every sheet has a QR code that opens the answers, so children can check their own work.

Or pick a ready-made puzzle ↓

How it works

    Easy hides words across and down, medium adds diagonals, and hard adds words written backwards. Press “Try another layout” for a new square.

  3. 3

    Print and play

    Download the PDF and print it. Children tick off each word as they find it, then scan the QR code to check.

Questions

Is the word search maker free?
Yes. Make and print as many word searches as you like, at home or for a whole class, with no sign-up.
How does the QR code show the answers?
Scan the QR code on the printed sheet with a phone. It opens this page with every hidden word marked.
Can I make a word search in Bahasa Melayu?
Yes. Choose Bahasa Melayu or English for the sheet's headings, and use words in either language. Spaces and dashes are left out, so “rama-rama” is hidden as RAMARAMA.
Are there ready-made puzzles?
Yes. Under the maker are popular puzzles on the topics children learn at school, such as Buah-buahan Tempatan, Nama Nabi, Rukun Islam, Merdeka, Sistem Suria and Nama Haiwan, and English ones too. Pick one to fill the maker, then print the word search as it is or change the words.
What do easy, medium and hard mean?
Easy hides every word across or down. Medium also hides words diagonally. Hard also hides words backwards, upwards and on every diagonal.
How many words can one word search have?
Up to 15 words, each up to 15 letters long.
