About this spring word search
- Astronomical spring begins at the March equinox, around March 20 in the Northern Hemisphere, when day and night are close to equal in length.
- Many robins actually stay put all winter. They seem to return in spring because they move back onto lawns to hunt earthworms once the ground thaws.
- Pair the puzzle with a nature walk: after solving, kids check off every word they can spot outside, such as buds, puddles, worms, or a nest.
