A little about this puzzle

In a Christmas touring-theatre packing room, an adult presses a protective foam pad into an open props trunk while an assistant checks the puppet-head clearance opening. A support strut holds the lid open. A puppet, mask and paper crown rest on the packing table; the upholstered work bench and rear tool cabinet hold the remaining tools and props. The oblique overhead scene uses a restrained retro-print palette and is designed toward ages 10–12 at L3 difficulty. It has not been validated through child play-testing or physical printing. The ten targets are Protective pad, Puppet, Mask, Paper crown, Scissors, Paper template, Tailor tape, Cloth bag, Program booklet and Hang tag. The key has two rows of five icons with adjacent names. Choose the Color or Line art image, use the picture clues to find each object, and keep the Answer key separate until you are ready to check. The three images can be printed or saved as PDF using your browser.
