National Puzzle Day

National Puzzle Day is an annual American observance held every January 29, celebrating puzzles of all kinds — from jigsaw and crossword puzzles to brain teasers and word games. The day was established in 1994 by puzzle enthusiast Jodi Jill, who chose her birthday to encourage people of all ages to flex their problem-solving skills and enjoy the mental challenge that puzzles provide.
