Program Pilot: Local History Games/Puzzles

What better way to share New Jersey’s local history then with games. In an effort to create a fun and entertaining teaching method, the Mr. Local History Project presents a number of interactive puzzles and games for kids and adults. Look for different kinds of puzzles, from crossword puzzles to word searches, memory games and more!

We’re testing public interest with our first pilot of 2022. If you like the idea of growing our games catalog as part of our education program, please let us know.

Feel free to print or share.
If you like them, let us know.
