Printable puzzles

Every puzzle here was generated once and checked once: the word search has all its words and no accidental second copy, the sudoku has exactly one answer, the maze has exactly one path. The answer key is on every sheet.

By game

Printable word searches
Words hidden in a grid of letters, from eight easy ones running straight across to twenty in all eight directions. Every grid was read back afterwards to make sure no word turned up twice by accident.24 puzzles
Printable criss-cross puzzles
Words from one subject interlocked into the smallest grid that holds them, with the clues written for a classroom rather than for a newspaper. No black squares: the shape is whatever the words make — which is also why this is the one a teacher can rebuild with her own word list.12 puzzles
Printable crossword puzzles
The square with the black squares: thirteen by thirteen, symmetrical, and every white cell belongs to an across answer and a down one — so every letter can be worked out two ways. Around sixty clues on each, all written here, and the filled grid prints on the second page.11 puzzles
Printable sudoku
Nine by nine, one answer and no other, graded by the hardest technique the grid really needs. Each one says how many numbers it starts with and what you will have to spot to finish it.16 puzzles
Printable mazes
Perfect mazes: no loops, no walled-off corners, exactly one way through. Entrance and exit sit at the two ends of the longest route the maze contains, so the short cut you are looking for is not there.16 puzzles
Dot-to-dot printables
A picture broken into numbered dots, twenty of them for a hand that is still counting and a hundred for one that is not. The dots sit where the outline turns, which is why the drawing still looks like itself.20 puzzles
