My pals at Timberdoodle asked me to write an honest review for this puzzle book. It’s a part of their 8th grade curriculum kit and also offered by itself too as a great thought-provoking, quiet time activity. Thoughts and opinions, like always, are mine.

My thoughts on Extreme Dot-to-Dot: Spectacular Places

  • I happen to have a kid that loves puzzles. These Extreme Dot-to-Dot books are just his speed. They require lots of concentration. I love that.
  • The puzzle-lover gets to see if they can figure out the “spectacular place” before they even get to the end of the puzzle. Double puzzles.
  • Answer key is in the back in case you’re both stumped.
  • I love things that are handy! This requires a pencil. That’s it!
  • Extreme Dot-to-Dots require a lot patience as well as concentration. Your younger kids might become frustrated easily because these puzzles ARE tricky. I would recommend for ages 10+.
  • I love that these puzzles don’t just give your kids something to solve, they open a conversation to spectacular places! You could look up where the place is located, the history around it, and more.
