Part of Carl's Christmas Puzzle Hunt: 2014
Buddy the Elf is the star of this word search. 10 words of 6 or more letters each have been hidden in the grid below. Each words contain the letters E, L, and F in that order have been hidden in the grid below. Each time the letters ELF appear in a word, they have been replaced with an image of Buddy. Words may appear horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, and either forward or backward, but always in a straight line.
Find all the words in the word search to get a hint for the code.
[For the first puzzle, I wanted something quick and easy so the boys would get a quick reward, keeping them wanting more. I knew a word search would be easy to solve, and the ELF theme gave it some nice Christmas flavor. I almost gave up on the ELF theme when I saw how few words there are in English that have the letters E, L, F, but one word in particular saved the theme.]
