Recommendation for pocket puzzle things?

[BishBashBoshy]

So I'm not really sure what I'm after here but my daughter is having a party in an escape room. We're not doing party bags but I'd like to give the kids a little puzzle or toy infitting with the theme. There aren't many kids so maybe about £5 each? I'd like to get something decent that they might play with for longer than 5 mins (or will at least be able to charity shop/regift!). They will be around 9.

9 years old that is. :)

Dd1 loves the IQ fit games but I doubt you'd get them for £5.
Have you had a look at the works? Fake Rubiks cube type puzzles.

Slide puzzles.

Have a look in Costco - I saw a pack of nine little wooden puzzle things that would be perfect! Not sure how much the pack was - but would definitely be

Ohhhh, those balls where you have to get the ball bearing round the maze! I can’t remember what they are called...

Addict-a-ball!

Perhaps Puzzle books like these? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Brain-Games-Clever-Kids-Buster/dp/1780552491/ref=sr11_5?crid=2VXERONITS9M3&keywords=kids+puzzle+books&qid=1568751438&s=gateway&sprefix=Kids+puzzle%2Caps%2C167&sr=8-5

That was a really helpful post MarsBarAttacks. I was after one of those labyrinth games for my DS but I didn't know what they were called.

You have saved me some frantic googling followed by asking on here.

Glad you found what you're looking for, TonofLead.

Something from The Happy Puzzle Company?

What about a Rubix cube? You can get them for under £5 on amazon.

Puzzle boxes with a small treat in when they unlock them?
