An brief article on the WTOP in Washington website called “Shaping Minds with Puzzles” seems like it would be a great starting point for teachers looking to use puzzles in their classrooms.
It starts by referencing an article that discusses the education value of jigsaw puzzles, but the article discusses a wide range of puzzles. There’s some brief puzzle history (quick when was the first crossword published?) including a mention for the Elliott Avendon Museum. The article even points towards resources for getting kids involved in creating puzzles.
The main problem is that the article is unfortunately free of links, though many of the sites it discusses can be found easily enough through google.
