Coffee-break Puzzle Set: £16 
These puzzles are very innovative as they are wrapped like packets of coffee. At first glance, you’d think exactly that!
These are ideal as a gift or present for children or the puzzle enthusiast. As it says on the packet, ‘take a break, pour yourself a coffee and relax with this fantastic Coffee-break puzzle’.
There are three different types:
Jigsaw Puzzle – this 225-piece jigsaw will complete a 40cm x 40cm black & white image of a gentleman drinking coffee!
Memory Game – shuffle the 36 tiles, place them face down, then players take it in turn to turn two tiles face up, the aim is to turn two matching images each time. When a player turns over a matching image, they keep that pair. If mages are non-matching, turn the tiles face down again. The winner is the player with the most pairs.
Puzzle Challenge – arrange the 36 tiles into a 6 x 6 square so that the image on each corner matches the image on the corner of the adjacent tile.
The Maze: £8
A popular game where you have to have superb hand-eye co-ordination to get the ball from the start of the board to the finish, through a maze, and avoiding 30 small holes in the process. And yes, it is possible! The more times you try, the better you get, but it is essential you have a very steady hand.
Each of the holes are
numbered from 1 to 30, so you can play against other family members to see who can get furthest around the board, or just simply try and beat your own personal record. Very addictive!
The Mini Maze: £4
This is an exact, but smaller, version of The Maze containing just 15 obstacles to manoeuvre. Again, it's extremely addictive for the younger puzzle enthusiast!
