A crossword is a hobby very entertaining that consists of a Grid in which you have to write words that intersect both vertically and horizontally. In the grid there are white squares, where the letters are to be written, and black squares that separate the words. To be able to play with the crossword you will have to carefully read the definitions provided to guess which are the hidden words in the crossword. On the Internet there are many pages where you can create your own crossword. Next, we propose one of them and the steps you will have to follow to do it.
At OneHowTo we also teach you how to create an alphabet soup.
Steps to follow:
1
The first thing you should do to create your own crossword is to go to the following link: create a crossword.

You can also choose whether or not to add the crossword instructions.

The next step to create your own crossword will be to write all the words that you want to appear in it; you can enter a maximum of 35 words. Each word must be entered with a clue next to it.
For example, if the word entered is DOG the clue could be: domestic animal who is regarded as man’s best friend. Being an English program, write all the words and clues without accents, because it will not accept them.

Once you have written all the words and clues, look at the bottom of the page and select the options that interest you:
– Make a line for name so that each word appears on one line
– Show the word bank so that all the words in the crossword puzzle appear out of order. You will only have to mark the last option if you want your crossword to be used by other people.

Click on horizontal / vertical so that these words appear in Spanish. If you do the crossword in English click across / down.
