Puzzles Puzzles Puzzles -Free Printables

I just got this great email from Activity Village...........

I hope you will have had a chance to explore Activity Village's Puzzles section!
But just in case, I thought it might be useful if I give you a quick tour of what we currently offer. We are in the middle of a big expansion of the Puzzles section and I'm excited to tell you about some of the newest offerings...
Our Puzzles section entry page is divided into 5 sections:
1. Featured puzzles
2. Puzzles by type (see below)
3. Online puzzle games
4. Puzzles by holiday
5. Puzzles by season
Here's a brief guide to just some of the types of puzzle we offer.
Sudoku for Kids:
Activity Village was the first provider of Sudoku puzzles exclusively for children, and I'm really proud of our puzzles. We grade them very carefully so that children can start with the easiest and progress slowly, never coming across a puzzle which stumps them and puts them off. We have 4x4, 6x6 and 9x9 grids, as well as some fun Word Sudoku puzzles for many of the Holidays and Topics we cover.
Mazes:
Develop pencil control for the youngest children and keep older children busy and challenged with our large collection of printable mazes.
Tangrams:
These ancient Chinese puzzles ("seven pieces of cleverness") are challenging for all ages!
Grid Copy Puzzles:
I'm not sure that these are really puzzles in the conventional sense, but I've included them in the Puzzles section because they build concentration and counting skills! They are a fun way to learn to draw, too!
Word Puzzles:
We have a huge collection of the more conventional word puzzles, including word sea rches , word scrambles, word wheels, crosswords, how many words puzzles and more.
And that's only a small taster of the puzzles already available at Activity Village. Please do explore some more!
And if your kids love puzzles, or you'd like to build up a stack of printables for quick classroom fillers or rainy days, do consider signing up to our Daily Kids Puzzles Newsletter for a new puzzle, direct to your inbox, each weekday.
Thank you for supporting Activity Village, and I hope you visit often! If you have any special requests or comments, just hit return on this email and drop me a line.
With best wishes,
