Treasury of Classic and Modern Puzzles
Everyone knows a few puzzles, like the Rubik's Cube or the "Fifteen"
sliding block puzzle. However, until now only a few people knew that
there are hundreds of extremely clever simple puzzles, that you don't
need to buy anything to play.
Here in our PuzzlePLAYGROUND, we've assembled and organized a
collection of the best of these for your puzzling enjoyment. These
classic and modern, hands-on puzzles that use coins or matches or
stuff you can find or print out free from our site.
To participate, simply scroll down our list until you find a puzzle
that intrigues you. Then simply click it to open and read all about
it. If you like it, print it out and it's yours. |

Puzzle Resource Center for Teachers
This section of our website is designed for people who have an interest in
education. This can include teachers, homeschooling parents, and kids who
enjoy challenges themselves.
The section itself emerged from the former DeepTHOUGHT sector. We continue
in its traditions to learn more about puzzles in education, and the
education in puzzles, as well as experimenting with how to connect the
worlds of puzzling and education
We share here experience from teachers that already use puzzles in their
classrooms. Their stories could inspire other teachers to include variety of
puzzles into day-to-day lessons. The section provides recommendations how to
use puzzles
in math education and also features several lesson plans that include many
puzzles. You can buy a set of puzzles directly from here to start with your
own puzzle way or enrich your existing puzzle methods in education process.
This area is still "in process", and you're warmly welcome to explore and
contribute! |

Puzzling Is Good for You
The World of Puzzles, Games, Tricks, Illusions... It's much like a
real World which never stops and never sleeps. We permanently create
puzzles and solve them, we play games and win (or loss), we
entertain our audience with cool tricks and try to find out the secret
of the tricks we are amused with, many times we can't believe our
eyes, and every time we wonder how it's amazing (and difficult)
to see unusual sides in common things...
We'd like to share with all puzzle enthusiasts all around the World
our passion in Puzzles and Puzzling, our love to all those
nice-beautiful-amazing-wonderful-clever-fun things which help us learn
and teach, relax and work, create and live.
You're welcome to join us in building the World Puzzling Community.
This is the most puzzling place on the Web to see old and meet new
puzzle friends, share with them cool puzzle ideas and find new puzzles
created especially for you. |
