Want to make a child happy? Start a fire and add sugar! Slathering a melted marshmallow between two graham crackers with some chocolate has to be the best childhood treat, especially when combined with a little camaraderie around a campfire. Today, we’re re-theming a Coffee Milk puzzle to make some gooey snacks, in honor of National Graham Cracker Day.
Yes, we just did S’mores for National Graham Cracker Day about a month ago, but turns out there’s a National S’mores Day too! I certainly won’t say no to more gooey snacks over a campfire. So let’s go for another round!
Connect one set of graham crackers with marshmallows and chocolate to create s’more groups.
Bats fly, and zombies belong underground – everyone knows that. But can you use this knowledge to place one of each in all the regions?
Oh no! There’s a terrible blizzard, and only one reindeer can guide the way! You must place reindeer and snow in each region of the grid to guide Santa. As we all know, reindeer fly, and snow falls, which is key to solving this puzzle.
Scientists have been going round and round for decades about whether eggs or good for you, or if you should eat them in moderation. All I know is that I’m a sucker for a plate of deviled eggs, or a whole lot of over-easy fried eggs. Today is National Egg Day, in case you missed Egg Month in May. Of course, there’s always World Egg Day on October 11th, so you have another chance to enjoy this delicious staple.
You’re the coordinator for this year’s Secret Santa party. Each of your seven guests brought a present for each of the others. You mixed in the gifts from you, and arranged them in a neat grid, with one present for each guest in each row and column. No idea why – you just liked the arrangement. But then the labels fell off of most of them! Fortunately, you were able to remember a bit about how they were arranged. Can you deduce the rest of the labels?
In Futoshiki, your goal is to fill the grid with numbers from 1-7, without repeating a digit in any row or column. Inequality symbols between cells always point to the smaller number.
Back in my youth, one of the sillier worksheets we used to get in math class was the number comparison worksheet. the teacher used to explain the greater-than and less-than symbols as, “the alligator easts the larger number.” That got me thinking that it would be a fun way to theme a Futoshiki puzzle.
It’s the time of year for every parent’s favorite task. Figure out how to wrap oddly-shaped packages! Of course, for this puzzle, the boxes are invisible! Each bow is already in place, and you must draw the border lines to reveal all the presents.
It’s a starry night, and the sky is filled with galaxies. In this puzzle, divide the grid into irregular regions with a galaxy at the exact center.
