Popsicle Stick Puzzles

These are so fun and easy to make ~ for all ages, from toddler up to adult. (Yes, I had tons of fun making these!)

It’s very simple.

Just stack up some popsicle sticks then tape up the back like this:

Flip it over and draw on the front with markers. You can also use paint if you like.

When you’re finished take the tape off and you have yourself a little puzzle!

(*A little tip, if you want to get fancy – we added glitter to some and then did a coat of mod podge on each individual popsicle stick to keep the glitter from flaking off.)

I did this all morning with my boys. Then again at our after-school kids program. And when I woke up in the morning the boys were up at the table making more puzzles! It’s addictive!

I put each finished puzzle in a sandwich bag. The kids at our program left with 5 or 6 completed puzzles each and chatted to each other, “Now when we’re bored we have something to do!”

Here are some examples of puzzles the kids made:

You get the idea!

~ Enjoy!
