A shorter puzzle of ten
Choose "10 short words" beside the heading for a smaller grid with these ten: bike, fly, kite, ice, pie, sky, nine, five, time and lime. None has more than 4 letters. On a phone the full puzzle takes twelve of the 20, so the letters stay big enough to tap.

- 4 words start with S. When you find an S, check it for sky, slide, smile and sunshine.
