FREE President's Day Mish Mash Puzzles

The Puzzle Den - President's Day Mish Mash #1 - Free Puzzle

Today's freebie is a set of Mish Mash puzzles for President's Day! What's a Mish Mash puzzle you ask? The puzzler is presented with 20 word halves in the shaded boxes at the top. The goal is to put all the words back together again! In this case, the words are all themed on President's Day, names of presidents, or terms associated with the US government.

There are 3 Mish Mash puzzles to choose from. Puzzle #1 contains words that are 6 letters long. Puzzle #2 has words with 8 letters. And Puzzle #3 has 10 letter words. When my editor/guinea pig solver tried these out, she found the 6 letter puzzle to be the hardest! She reports needing to google presidents names that were 6 letters long to be able to finish the puzzle. (Maybe I didn't teach her enough about the presidents?!) But to be fair, when I was putting these together, I did suspect that the smaller words would be more challenging. The longer word halves give more clues or maybe just a feeling for how the words should be.

So if in doubt about which puzzle would be the best for your children/students, I would go with the 8 letter puzzle. And if they enjoy it, give them the others! Or try solving all 3 yourself...it might be fun!

You can download all three as a set in a PDF document here. You can also click on any of the pictures above for the same file. Included are the 3 puzzles and answer keys for each.

Enjoy!
