Evening all
I've made a FREE printable colouring-in sheet with puzzles for kids which can also be folded into a mini zine. It's simultaneously computing- and Christmas-themed.

For teachers and home-schoolers (or just anyone who wants to use this as a teaching opportunity) there's additional information on the linked page about computational thinking, search strategies as well as counting and phonics for younger kids. E.g. the pixel puzzle (colour by numbers) can be used to talk about data compression and how colours are represented in computers. Or you can just colour it in - heavy on the festive, light on the pedagogy 🙂
Last year I made this hexahexaflexagon https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/arts_and_crafts/4425594-Make-a-paper-hexahexaflexagon-fun-craft-activity
Hope you like it :)
