While I like word puzzles, visual puzzles etc., I don't buy them or work them on a regular basis. My form of puzzles are really the model structure kits that I build, paint, weather and detail for my model railroad. Sort of a three dimensional puzzle. The other thing I like is making stained glass, using a pattern of connected pieces.
I have to be "in the mood". I suppose if I do it enough I might be better at it.
I regularly try to do crossword puzzles, but I don't think I'm that good at them. I stick to the medium difficulty ones.
I try the SUDOKU puzzles in the paper daily and I am getting better and better at them. Then I do the SCRABBLE in the paper ... then the NYTimes Crossword (which used to intimidate me but I have decided that Will Shortz has a twisted sense of humor which I admire!) and then the daily commuter crossword.
If I get all of those done, I sometimes do the word search puzzle, if I have time.
I do most of these while tutoring ...
Marsha (Totsie) gave me a book of SUDOKU puzzles for Christmas and I have really enjoyed it! Edited by Will Shortz!
I like the 'fill' in cross-word puzzles, where the list of words are provided and you have to make the words fit together. The ones with NUMBERS are my favorite! I do one or two daily.
I also like on-line computer cross words where you have a 'verify' button for the word you are trying to use.
I also love math questions like: In the bus there are: 7 girls with 7 backpacks each containing 7 large cats and each of the large cats have 7 small cats: how many legs are in the bus?
I really enjoy the difficult Crossword puzzles..on Sundays we get 3 in our paper. If I finish them all I do some of the other ones...sorry can't recall what there names are!
