12 space silhouettes (PNG)
Rocket, astronaut, ringed planet, crescent moon, star, satellite, alien head, UFO, comet, rover, rescue badge and capsule. Each one is a solid black shape on a transparent background, 1000 x 1000 pixels, bold enough to read at small sizes in a Sudoku cell. Space isn’t tied to one season, so the pictures fit a book you sell any month of the year.
You can use these images in any project, personal or commercial, including books you sell, with or without changes. They were made with AI, so no one, including us, can claim copyright on them.
Who it’s for
- Puzzle Maker Pro licence holders who want to see what a finished kids’ book looks like, and then make their own.
- KDP publishers looking for a kids’ gift title for the holidays and the Christmas school break. Space sells all year, so the book keeps selling after January.
- Printable puzzle sellers who want space pages with pictures, mazes and coloring for young solvers.
How we made it
Every page was made in Puzzle Maker Pro and put together in Puzzle Book Studio. Here is what each module did:
- Standard Word Search: 4 classic word searches with space words.
- Count Word Search: 8 pages where one word is hidden many times over in the grid. Kids count how many times they find it.
- Secret Word Criss Cross: 4 Criss Cross puzzles with a hidden secret word. Kids copy the numbered letters into the strip under the grid to reveal it.
- Sudoku Kids Edition: 8 small 4 x 4 and 6 x 6 Sudoku pages with space pictures in place of numbers.
- Picture Math: 8 picture-sum pages where each picture stands for a number, and kids work out which.
- Square Mazes 2D: 8 Grid Mazes (square grid) to find the way through.
- Quiz Builder: 12 multiple-choice Solar System quiz pages. Quiz Builder comes with a built-in Solar System question bank.
- Copy and Color: 8 pages where kids copy a picture square by square, then color it in.
- Puzzle Book Studio: All eight puzzle types shuffled through the whole book, set to US Letter 8.5 x 11, black and white, and rendered as one PDF.
A thing to know before you make your own:
- Every edition includes Puzzle Book Studio and builds a book from one puzzle collection. To combine several collections into one book, like the eight in this book, you need the Productivity edition (or Puzzle Book Studio Productivity).
