    If you're looking for a beginner 4x4 sudoku printable, you've come to the right place! This is where you'll find a collection of easy sudoku puzzles for adults and kids of all ages. Check back again soon because I'll be adding to this collection each week!

    A preview of three pages of 4x4 sudoko printables with four puzzles each and the text "free printable 4x4 sudoku puzzles"

    If you're looking to print your own sudoku book for free, I have good news! This is a growing collection of sudoku games. I intend add to it weekly throughout the remainder of the year, so check back again soon to download a whole host of free sudoku puzzles.

    I may also share puzzles with a different number of grids if there is an interest. Please leave a comment and let me know if that's something you'd like to see.

    Rules of sudoku

    Sudoku has simple rules: fill in the missing numbers so that each number is used exactly once in each horizontal and vertical line. The numbers used are based on the grid size. This means a 4x4 grid uses the numbers 1-4.  

    These are smaller puzzles than classic sudoku grids, which are 9x9 and use the numbers 1-9. The printables on this page are easy puzzles compared to a classic size.

    Sudoku puzzles are a great way to teach, or practice, deductive reasoning as you, or your younger children, use the process of elimination to determine the correct numbers.

    Use these puzzles as part of your math lesson plans or as a fun at home activity! Fun games can be powerful tools for teaching.

    Even though these printable sudoku puzzles all have a 4x4 grid, the number of empty cells varies. This changes the level of difficulty. More numbers prefilled makes an easier puzzle. Fewer numbers filled creates harder puzzles, even within the same size sudoku grid.

    There are three different difficulty levels of puzzle on this page: easy level, medium level, and difficult level. There are also special kid sudoku puzzles with fun images. 

    Each page is available in PDF format and includes the answer key. As noted above, these are small grids so there are four puzzles on each page.

    Please note that these logic puzzles are licensed for personal and classroom use. You are not licensed to redistribute or sell the print outs or digital files to others.

    Please use the download link located below each preview image to get the sheet of puzzles and their answer key.

    Keep working your way through these smaller grid puzzles and soon you'll feel like a sudoku master who's ready to take on more challenging puzzles!

    Puzzles are arranged by varying levels of difficulty. Use the download link directly below each preview image to access the digital items. Each page of puzzles is accompanied by the appropriate answer key.
