About this printable

Ready for the hardest puzzles in the set? This 24-page printable puzzle book is built for children ready for a real challenge. Note: best for ages 8 and up.

The book takes everything from the easier puzzle books and adds real depth: expert mazes with many dead ends, larger word searches that run in every direction, codes to crack with a simple key, logic grids that require careful elimination, and riddles that reward lateral thinking. A hint system on the parent guide page helps when a puzzle gets tough.

WHO IT'S FOR Strong readers who have finished easier puzzle books, homeschool families, and teachers who want a challenge center. It works well for siblings who want to solve together.

HOW TO USE IT Let your child attempt each puzzle alone first. Use the parent guide hints if they get stuck, and ask them to explain their reasoning. Keep a scrap of paper nearby for notes on logic puzzles.
