Animal Silhouette Tangram – Printable Puzzle Game for Kids
This animal silhouette tangram game encourages kids to recreate different animal shapes using a standard set of 7 geometric pieces. From a cat to a turtle, each animal appears only as a black silhouette—challenging children to analyze, rotate, and place the tangram parts correctly.
It’s a smart, screen-free way to boost visual reasoning, spatial awareness, and problem-solving skills. Because the animal outlines are black and white, kids need to rely on shape recognition rather than color, making it more stimulating for elementary-level learners.
This printable tangram sheet is perfect for quiet time at home, classroom centers, homeschooling sessions, or rainy day logic games.
Looking for an easier version? Try our colorful animal tangram puzzle for kids to print—perfect for younger learners just starting with shape recognition.
