I like the word search best, eye-ball exercises.

I like word search puzzles since they are easier
To do. When I was in school I enjoyed crossword puzzles
Because the instructor would make them up from
The chapters in our book we had to read. I cannot do them
From the Sunday newspaper.

How about you, which do you like?
I like word search puzzles too! I like to keep a book in my purse for times when I find myself some where like the Doctors office or in the car waiting on someone. It is helpful to pass some idle time while I am waiting. I have never been able to do cross-word puzzles and get really flustered with them. So to save on my sanity I leave those alone.

I like both at times but crosswords are my number one favorite.

I have done a few crossword puzzles, but my favorite is the word searches.  They are easier to find.  I can't always answer the crossword puzzles.

I prefer crossword puzzles. I even like the really difficult ones if I have someone else to do them with. You can each contribute half a brain or more that way.

I avoided word searches for a long time because they didn't seem to be much of a challenge. But now I feel they have a place in the world and I enjoy them too.  :angel11:

Yes I agree, word searches are easier to solve and my vocabulary isn't big enough for most crossword puzzles lol

Word search puzzles don't really challenge me, so I prefer crossword puzzles. I also like to do logic problems.

I like them both, but I think I prefer word search puzzles better. It can be hard to finish the crossword puzzles sometimes.

I usually get stuck or frustrated with crosswords puzzles, so I stick with word search.

I would much rather do word searches as crossword puzzles are too hard and take too much time.

I like to play Words with Friends with my wife.  She beats me every time.

I have always been a fan of crosswords. Sometimes they are really hard and sometimes I can finish them. I am proud of myself when I can get a few clues from a really difficult one (like towards the end of the week and weekend)

I like some crossword puzzles and some word find ones also. But my favorite ones are those fill-ins. They look like crossword puzzles but there not.

I like word searches because at least you have a word bank. As for crossword puzzles, I like them until there's a word I don't know :P Often, the crossword puzzles I do reference things I've never even heard of like movies I've never seen or books I've never read.
