Printable Advent Calendar Puzzles for Kids | 24 Christmas Puzzles: Maze, Sudoku, Word Search | Ages 6–10 | Instant PDF Download

A new door every day, a new puzzle every day: This puzzle advent calendar for children offers 24 printable Christmas puzzles from December 1st to 24th – a mix of mazes, Sudokus, and word searches. The snowman is looking for his nose, the elf for his present, the reindeer wants to get to the sleigh, and on Christmas Eve, the big Christmas word search awaits.

★ AT A GLANCE
✔ For children aged 6 to 10 – very easy at first, then a little more challenging at the end
✔ 8 mazes (two of them in the shape of a Christmas tree), 8 Sudokus (first 4 × 4 with pictures, then 6 × 6 with numbers) and 8 word searches with capital letters
✔ The words are only arranged from left to right or from top to bottom – good for beginning readers
✔ Each page features a large number indicating the number of the advent calendar door, a Christmas illustration, a puzzle, and an extra activity: a joke, a riddle, or a small interactive idea.
✔ An advent calendar without a screen and without sweets – just pen and paper

★ WHAT'S INSIDE (35 PAGES)
✔ Front page
✔ Instructions with craft idea: Put pages in envelopes, write the door number on them, hang them on a string
✔ 24 round door numbers to cut out
✔ Star Passport: Color in a star for each puzzle solved
✔ 24 puzzle pages, one for each day
✔ 6 pages of solutions
✔ Certificate "Puzzle Pro" for Christmas Eve

★ THIS IS HOW IT WORKS
1. Print – normal paper is sufficient, black and white is also fine.
2. Put each puzzle in an envelope and stick its corresponding door number on it – or simply place it next to your breakfast plate every morning.
3. Open a door each day and solve the puzzle. The solutions at the back are for adults.

★ FILES
✔ PDF in A4 and US Letter formats, 35 pages each
✔ Instant download, print as often as you like – also for siblings, your own school class or daycare group
