Puzzle Club Magazine.

Puzzle Club is a new magazine produced by the educational company Puzzler. The aim is to offer children at key stage 2 a fun way to learn.

The Puzzle Club magazine arrived with me a few weeks ago and it has been a big hit with my 9 yr old. She loves computer games and would spend all day playing her nintendo if I didn’t intervene! I was hoping that she would be interested in Puzzle Club and therefore reduce her ‘screen time’.

The magazine cover is bright and colourful – like a ‘fun’ magazine rather than an educational one. The cartoons which accompany the puzzles add interest and appeal and the various puzzles are age appropriate therefore building confidence as they can be completed without any help from myself.

My older daughter is undergoing preparation for the local ‘transfer’ test which will determine her post-primary education. I have noticed a lot of similarities between the puzzles in the Puzzle Club magazine and the tests my older daughter has to complete. The magazine is a fab way to encourage learning while having fun and this has always been deemed the best way for children to learn.

I am encouraging other mums to try Puzzle Club for their children as I will definitely be continuing to receive it. Subscriptions can be made through WHSmith and all good retailers. RRP £3.99 per magazine.
