My First Crossword

The crossword book that needs no reading to start.

Every clue is a picture. Your child reads the picture, counts the boxes and writes the word — and where two words cross, the shared letter checks both. That’s the whole game, and it teaches itself.

• 90 crosswords in 14 themed worlds, on a real ladder — Under the Sea, On the Farm, A Spooky Night, Once Upon a Time and more; three-word minis first (with one word filled in gray to show how), then four, five, and six-word champion grids
• A walked-through opening — one puzzle solved step by step before your child tries their own
• 171 different picture clues, each naming exactly ONE word — dragons, knights, princesses, dinosaurs, mermaids, tractors, volcanoes, rainbows — and no word appears more than three times in the whole book, so the puzzles stay fresh to the last page
• Every clue doubles as a mini coloring page — solve the word, then color the picture in
• Three self-checks per word — the picture, the box count, and the crossing letters — so kids solve independently
• Machine-checked, every single grid — the answers in the back are read from the same grids the puzzles came from, so the key can never disagree with the puzzle
• A progress tracker and a Crossword Champion certificate — kids color in a star for every level they climb, and the last page crowns them
• Classroom and homeschool friendly — pages may be photocopied for use in your own home or classroom
• Large print everywhere — big cells for young pencils, big pictures for young eyes, and text set in a literacy typeface designed for beginning readers

Builds spelling, vocabulary and confidence for ages 6–9, in a big 8.5 × 8.5 inch format. A pencil is the whole kit — perfect for quiet time, road trips and waiting rooms.
