Free Easter Cryptogram Puzzles – Printable PDF

This free Easter Cryptogram Puzzle printable adds a fun twist to traditional logic puzzles. Instead of using letters or number substitutions, this puzzle challenges kids to solve Easter-themed riddles using visual discrimination skills. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a unique bunny or egg image, and it’s up to the solver to decode the message.

Perfect for early finishers, classroom brain breaks, or quiet time at home, these visual puzzles are both fun and beneficial for developing important cognitive skills.

HOW TO COMPLETE THE EASTER CRYPTOGRAM PUZZLES

Each riddle begins with a line of symbols at the top—these images represent the letters of the alphabet. Your task is to use those images as a key to decode the Easter riddle on the page.

What makes it extra challenging? Many of the bunny icons look very similar. Kids must carefully observe small differences in ears, whiskers, or facial expressions to tell them apart.

Tips for solving:

  • Start with words that may repeat—patterns often give clues to simple words like “the” or “egg”
  • Look closely at every detail in the images
  • Fill in the letters you are confident about and work from there
  • Use the included answer key if needed

This type of puzzle is great for developing visual attention, detail recognition, and persistence.
