A shorter puzzle of ten
Choose "10 short words" beside the heading for a smaller grid with these ten: eggs, toast, cereal, milk, juice, bacon, bagel, jam, honey and syrup. None has more than 6 letters. On a phone the full puzzle takes twelve of the 20, so the letters stay big enough to tap.
Hints for this puzzle
- Start with the longest words. Pancake, oatmeal and biscuit take up the most room, so they are the easiest to spot.
- 5 words start with B. When you find a B, check it for bacon, bagel, banana, biscuit and berries.
- Look for doubled letters. Two of the same letter side by side stand out in a grid: eggs, waffle, muffin and berries.
