Husband Appreciation Day Word Search - A Heartfelt Classroom Activity!

I made this simple word search last year for my students to take home before Husband Appreciation Day (the third Saturday in April). It's a sweet 2-page PDF with 24 family-themed words like "love," "partner," "teamwork," and "grillmaster" hidden in the puzzle.

The words are all positive traits that my students came up with when we brainstormed what makes great husbands and fathers. I remember one boy proudly finding "handyman" because that's what his mom always calls his dad!

You'll get:
• Page 1: The word search with a mix of easy and challenging words
• Page 2: An answer key for quick checking

I use this when:

• Talking about family roles and appreciation

• Needing a meaningful take-home activity

• Preparing for April's appreciation days

The words are things kids actually say about their dads - "funny," "helpful," "hero" - not just generic compliments. Last year, several parents emailed saying how touched they were when this came home.

Format: No-fuss PDF (2 pages)
Teacher Tip: Have students circle 3 words that best describe their dad or husband figure!
