My daughter received the "Girl Talk" magazine at the weekend and really liked the picture Sudoku (PicDoku) puzzles that were in it (probably as a direct result of them having flowers and puppies and bunnies and stuff).
As a result, I have been tasked with printing a few more of these types of puzzles but am failing badly in locating any through Google.
Has anyone seen these types of puzzles available for printing?
I have also posted this in the Puzzle section for double coverage.

Alternatively print off some sudoku puzzles from a website (just put in sudoku generator in Google) and then re-do them on the computer with pictures for each number!
Depending how old your daughter is encourage her to try the number ones...they are great for their mental maths and are quite addictive!
Thanks.
My intention is to get her into the number ones but as she is only 7, I didn't want to scare her too much as numbers = maths = work. I thought if I get her hooked on the picture puzzles she may want to progress to the number one shortly.
But thaks for the idea of changing the numbers of an original puzzle to pictures.........why is it you never think of the easy solutions yourself?
make sure they are easy ones though that you replace with pictures!
This guy has some suggestions for kids su doku

Depending on how bright your daughter is the 'easy' levels in the Times might be accessible for her. You can download those from the times website, maybe then use Excel to translate them to pictures.
Its great that she's into them - they can only be good for our brain power, concentration and lateral thinking.
