  • Explore new worlds of knowledge. Many times the hidden words are centered around a topic of interest. Some of these are just for fun, but a topic can also introduce essential vocabulary that every child should possess.
  • Improve spelling. Just by searching for a word, puzzlers are learning to spell. In fact they are rehearsing the spelling over and over in their minds as they look for the letters the word contains.
  • Improve concentration. A valuable and increasingly rare skill, concentration is required to successfully complete these or just about any puzzle. They really do encourage the brain to stay focused.
  • Enhance visual acuity. Eyes that are trained regularly to look for small details will be stronger and more effective in many situations.
  • Most importantly, these puzzles are quietly entertaining! They can really come in handy during doctor visits, long trips in the car, or anytime you are hoping your child can sit still for a while.
