What this puzzle is about

River Picnic is a medium word search set beside the water. Ten words are hidden in a 14 × 14 grid: the RIVER and its WATER, a MEADOW of GRASS, a BRIDGE, a CLOUD overhead, a KITE, and the picnic itself, with a BLANKET, a BASKET, and the word PICNIC. Each word runs in a straight line in one of eight directions, including backward and diagonally.

Who it suits

Medium puzzles on Riddle Lamp use a 14 × 14 grid with ten words. Most words here are five or six letters long, so it is a steady, relaxed hunt, good for older kids, families, and anyone who likes an outdoor theme. It pairs well with The River Picnic logic grid.

How to start

Start with BLANKET, then look for the other two B words. RIVER is the only word with a V. Only MEADOW and WATER contain a W, so each W you spot is worth checking for either word. Leave KITE for last.

About the words

BLANKET is the longest word, at seven letters, and KITE is the shortest, at four. Three words start with B: BLANKET, BASKET, and BRIDGE. GRASS has a double S, and PICNIC uses the letter C twice.
