It is a crossword, and word search in one. They give you a cross word clue, and then you find the answer in the word search grid. When you find all the words the remaining letters spell out a Quote. I love to do crosswords, but I do not always finish them. What I liked with this puzzle is there are a few different ways to solve the puzzle. You can try to spell out the quote, or you can search for words, find the clues with the same word length and find the match. Of course you could also try to solve the crossword the old way.... by knowing all the answers!
I was thinking that this would b great for kids, Especially younger kids that do not know how to spell, but they know sight words.
I definitely recommend that everyone at least try a puzzle and see how much you like them. I was addicted. Try a free puzzle here: http://crosscanpuzzles.com/
CrosScan Puzzles
A Challenging New Dimension in Word Search
Bill Cobb, Susan T. Brown
Description
CrosScan is a unique blend of word search and crossword. This concept begins with a word search block; then crossword-style clues take the place of a word list. The theme is hidden; it emerges as the puzzle is worked. It’s an IQ workout that stretches the mental muscles. Created by humans rather than by computer, each finely-crafted puzzle has about 40 words and enough leftover letters to form a quotation related to the theme. Clues are not too difficult but certainly not easy as puns and double meanings are used to obscure the theme
