Highlights Hidden Pictures for National Puzzle Day!

This is a sponsorship with Highlights Hidden Pictures for National Puzzle Day.  We are huge fans of Highlights and all the above are my own opinions.

My family loves all puzzles! It has been a long standing family tradition to get together on Friday nights after school activities and errands to get together and work on our latest project. Even when our youngest was a toddler, she took to doing the basic baby puzzles like a pro, so, when I say we all love them I really mean it. Lately we’ve been trying to challenge ourselves with larger puzzles that have smaller pieces rather than the larger ones but my kiddos will still do the chunky floor models, as well, if they can’t wait for everyone to get together on Friday’s.  Highlights Hidden Pictures is always a fantastic option!Highlights Hidden Pictures

With National Puzzle Day on January 29th, I wanted to let my readers know of our personal love for puzzles as well as those that contain hidden pictures. You know the kind, reminiscent of those found in the old Highlights magazines that our doctors used to keep in the waiting rooms when we were small fry ourselves. As a parent in my 30’s, I love that Highlights magazine is still around and that they even have them for younger audiences now too! Talk about a blast from the past.Highlights Hidden Pictures

Highlights magazine is one of the oldest publications still being run, next to Where’s Waldo (who is celebrating his 72nd birthday, by the way), and to give those who aren’t familiar with the magazine a bit of insight about it, I’ve got some interesting facts to share:

  • Since the magazine released its Hidden Picture Puzzles years ago, over 100 different variations of bananas have been hidden for adults and children alike. 
  • Since being released in 1942, over 615 artists have worked with the magazine to create nearly 10,000 hidden picture puzzles. That’s 72 years worth of artistic talent and months spent at a time on each individual puzzle!  Highlights Hidden Pictures is such a fantastic option.Highlights Hidden Pictures
In addition to being in business since 1942, Highlights magazine and Highlights Hidden Pictures also has their own line of products geared towards puzzle solving for children. You can sign up for a subscription for your little ones as well as download the Hidden Pictures Puzzle Town App and purchase the Hidden Puzzles to Highlight Book. Make celebrating National Puzzle Day a new tradition in your family by heading over to the Highlights website and ordering your Highlights products today!

  39. Highlights was a staple growing up – we spent lots of time reading the stories but mostly enjoying the search and find. My Dad would make up a story when we would have difficulties locating a picture – it was so much fun. It is great to see that they offer age levels to allow everyone to learn as they grow. Thanks for these memories and opportunity to win a prize for the grandchildren.

  84. I was blessed with my twin sister and 2 brothers to be adopted into a family of 9. So there is 13 of us and 2 amazing parents. Now we have 42 grandkids for my parents. Highlights were the light of our life. Everywhere we went on trips, sleep overs, family time, or doctor offices. They helped us grow and it was just so fun. I have a step daughter who is 6 and 18 year old step son.

    Even though my husband and I may be parents, we’re still kids at heart and would so love to have these back in our life. so I would say just everything about them. Especially making it togetherness.
