Tips for finding Fruits words

  • Clear the short fruits first — fig, kiwi, lime, pear, plum, and date are three or four letters and hide easily among the filler squares.
  • Several fruits end in similar sounds: apple, grape, melon, mango, and lemon share vowels, so trace each letter run fully before selecting.
  • Papaya and cherry are the longest words and repeat letters (the double 'a' in papaya, the double 'r' in cherry) — use those repeats as anchors and check diagonals.
