Free Coffee Cup Shaped Word Search Activity
A cup of coffee on its saucer, with a round handle on the side, is the shape of this café word search. The 12 words follow coffee from the bean to the cup: the roast, the grinder and the aroma, then the drinks a barista prepares, from a short espresso to a latte, a cappuccino with milk froth or a mocha, plus the caffeine that keeps you going.
The cup is wide at the rim and a little narrower at the base, so the long words, like cappuccino, fit best near the top. It is a light-hearted puzzle for the staff room, a café table or a coffee lover who needs a break.
