About this word search
Grab a pencil and get ready to circle. This sheet hides 15 words about Hibernation and Animals in Winter, and your job is to find every last one.

It is a natural fit for students, teachers and homeschool families. You will find it in the Seasonal Nature & Animals collection alongside other puzzles that pair nicely with it.
