Printable Pearls
Printable Pearls puzzles
Draw one loop through every pearl. At a white pearl, go straight, then turn at the next dot on at least one side. At a black pearl, turn, then go straight through the next dot on both sides. Empty dots are optional.
Marking the loop
- Sketch possible segments lightly and darken a line when it is certain.
- Put small X marks between dots to rule out a segment.
- Check the next dot on both sides of every pearl.
How to play
Draw one continuous loop that visits every pearl. You do not have to use every empty dot. At a white pearl, go straight, then turn at the next dot on at least one side. At a black pearl, turn, then go straight through the next dot on both sides.
For a longer walkthrough, see the Pearls rules page.
Learning the two pearl rules
Draw one white pearl and one black pearl on the board before handing out the sheets. Ask the class to describe both patterns: go straight through a white pearl and turn at the next dot on at least one side; turn on a black pearl and go straight through the next dot on both sides. Keep the answer key separate. More Pearls boards are available at LoopAndGrid.com after class.
