Puzzle Challenge Days

Thinking Skills & Maths Activity Days For Up To 300 Students Per Day

Our programmes use large 3D team puzzles and challenges. They all look incredibly easy... until the students start trying to solve them! Their task then becomes one of turning the apparently impossible into the possible. As they do so, each student will improve their personal learning and thinking skills, build resilience and create a growth mind-set whilst boosting their confidence in the process and raising their own expectations of what they can achieve in the classroom. The Happy Puzzle Company offers four distinct and unique workshops from which to choose, and each workshop can be tailored to suit all ages and all abilities.
