Growing Up in the 1980s Word Search Book
The Word Search Book for Eighties Fans
Growing Up in the 1980s is a collection of 65 large-print word searches for people who spent their childhood and teenage years in the Eighties. It gives them something enjoyable to get stuck into while looking back on the music, TV, toys, fashion and everyday life they grew up with.
Across 10 themed sections, the puzzles explore school days, entertainment, video games, food, movies and more. They’re free to start with whatever takes their fancy, whether that’s the music they loved or the things they remember from school.
Description
Every puzzle includes a short memory prompt
The prompts encourage them to think beyond the words they’ve found and remember their own experiences of growing up in the Eighties. Some memories are just for them. Others are the start of a story their children or grandchildren have never heard before.

- Keep their mind engaged with intermediate-level puzzles that offer a satisfying challenge without being overwhelming
- Unwind with an entertaining screen-free activity, whether they have ten minutes or a whole afternoon
- Enjoy easy-to-read 18pt large print and uncluttered pages
- Check answers comfortably, with one solution per page, also in 18pt large print
- Think about parts of their childhood and teenage years they haven’t thought about in ages
- Find plenty to reminisce about and share fun memories with family and friends
