Kindergarten Math Crossword Puzzles That Make Learning Fun and Engaging

If you’ve been searching for a way to combine early math practice with vocabulary building, these Kindergarten math crossword puzzles are the perfect solution. Instead of another worksheet that feels like drill, these crosswords turn practice into a puzzle that feels like play. Students solve equations, discover the correct answers, and then use them to complete the puzzle grid — reinforcing number sense and math vocabulary words at the same time.

Each puzzle comes in two versions: one with a word bank and one without. That makes it simple to differentiate. Give the word bank version to students who need extra support, and challenge your advanced learners with the no-word-bank option. Every student gets meaningful practice at their level, without extra prep work for you.


Why These Crosswords Work

This resource includes over 50 Kindergarten math crossword worksheets that are ready to print and go. Each puzzle is tied to a specific Kindergarten skill, so you can quickly find one that matches your lesson. Need to review counting to 20? Grab the counting puzzle. Working on addition to 10 with pictures? There’s a crossword for that too.

The best part is that these activities don’t just review computation — they reinforce essential early math vocabulary. Kids practice spelling out words like “add,” “subtract,” and “count,” which helps them connect math concepts with the language they’ll use in class and during assessments.
