This folder contains the Christmas anacrostic puzzles created by my clever daughter Allyson Wright.

For a description of how to solve these puzzles, see the excellent Wikipedia entry for "Anacrostic."

The 2002 and 2003 ones are standard. The 2004 puzzle is available in regular and extra-lite versions. The 2005 puzzle reverts back to type—dead easy, the 2006 one is moderately difficult, the 2007 one is moderate, the 2008 one is presented as both regular and lite, the 2009 ones are regular and lite, the 2010 ones are regular and lite, the 2011 ones, following the trend, are presented in regular and lite, and (surprise) the 2012 ones are also regular and lite. There's only one version of the later ones, including the 2020 puzzle.

Try the regular ones first!

Hints for the anacrostically-challenged are also available for the 2003, 2004 and 2005 puzzles.
