Printable 5x5 Nonograms (Easy), Pack 2

Five-by-five nonograms are the best way to learn how the row and column clues work. Every clue fits in your head, most grids take a few minutes, and children who can count to five can solve them with a little help.

Pack 2 of 5 has eight nonograms with an answer key on the second page. Between 32 and 68 percent of the squares end up shaded, so no two grids look alike.

How to solve

  • Read the clues: The numbers beside a row (or above a column) are the lengths of its shaded blocks, in order, with at least one empty square between blocks.
  • Start with big blocks: A block longer than half the line always covers its middle squares, wherever it slides.
  • Mark the empties: Put a dot or an X in squares that must stay empty. They cut lines into smaller pieces.
  • Cross over: Every square you settle in a row is new information for its column, and the other way round.
