National Puzzle Day

When : Always January 29th

Don't be puzzled by today. National Puzzle Day honors puzzles of all size, shape and form. Crossword puzzles are by far the most common. Sudoku, a number puzzle, is the most recent puzzle rage. There's easy puzzles, and there's puzzles for experts. They fit the needs of every person, and every skill level.
Puzzles are a favorite pastime of millions of people, young and old. So, what's with this fascination over puzzles? There's numerous reasons for it's popularity. For many, doing puzzles is fun. Some people just like the challenge of completing them, and graduating to evermore complex and difficult puzzle solving levels. For others, it is a way to kill time, and to eliminate boredom. Others still, do puzzles to keep their mind sharp, or to learn new words.

Whatever the cause for your interest, spend National Puzzle Day doing puzzles.
Origin of National Puzzle Day:

Who created this day and when remains a puzzle.

There is no evidence to suggest that this is truly a "National" day, which requires an act of congress.

Here's a puzzle I created just for you. Have fun!

I never knew there was a puzzle day! I write different kinds of puzzles for kids, so this was fun to know.

I've always loved word searches. Not so great at crossword puzzles. Crytograms are cool too.
