Crossword Puzzle Maker
A crossword made from your own words turns vocabulary practice into a game. Enter words with their clues and the tool arranges them into a crossing grid. Print the blank puzzle for students and keep the answer key for yourself.
Format: word, clue — one pair per line. Words use letters only, 3 to 15 letters long.

How to use
- Type each word followed by a comma and its clue, one pair per line.
- Press Build Crossword — the tool arranges the words so they cross each other.
- Hand out the blank numbered grid; use the answer key to check solutions.
Note: Every word must cross at least one other word to fit the grid. Words that cannot be connected are reported under the puzzle. A longer word list gives a better, tighter crossword. Nothing is uploaded — all work happens in your browser.
