Be a dad hero – make a Word Search puzzle using your child’s name

You used to have to buy special software to makes puzzles like Word Search, or worse, tediously type out letters in rows to hide key words. DiscoveryEducation.com, however, has an easy-to-use Puzzle Maker where you type in your words and it spits this out with a list of the words you chose for him or her. So much better than the self-serving ones you get on the restaurant kids menu. Here, you can hide his name, key events, and lots of subliminal power or mommy and daddy.

This brightened my son’s morning today. He can’t read yet, but he was able to recognize Wii and his name.
