What this puzzle is about
Music Hall is a medium word search for anyone who loves music. Ten words are hidden in a 14 × 14 grid: five instruments (VIOLIN, FLUTE, DRUM, GUITAR, and PIANO), the STAGE they are played on, and four words about the music itself: MELODY, RHYTHM, CHORD, and MUSIC. Each word runs in a straight line, in any of eight directions, including backward and diagonally.
Who it suits
Medium puzzles on Riddle Lamp use a 14 × 14 grid with ten words, so there is plenty to scan without the list feeling long. The words are short to medium length, which suits older kids, adults, and music students looking for a themed break. Play it online, where found words are highlighted for you, or print it for home or class.
How to start
Start with RHYTHM: find each R in the grid and check its eight neighbors for an H. VIOLIN is the only word with a V, which makes it another quick find. Leave DRUM for last, since short words are easier once the long ones are marked. If a word will not turn up, look for its last letter and read backward.
About the words
Four words tie for longest at six letters: VIOLIN, GUITAR, MELODY, and RHYTHM. DRUM is the shortest, at four. RHYTHM is the odd one out, with no vowel except Y, so look for its unusual run of consonants. MUSIC and MELODY both start with M.
