Enigmarch is a fun little activity to get those wheels spinning on puzzle design. Each day they provide the community with a new theme for a puzzle. Search the hashtag #enigmarch for a ton of free puzzles and brainteasers!

I like to make these really quickly – the opposite of what we do for Society of Curiosities games. Since I live on an island, I had a lot of ideas and inspiration for this one. Hope you enjoy what I came up with.

SOLUTION:

What do all of these tourists need?

ALOE!

  1. Coconut bra tan (All Aloha hula class)
  2. Snorkel Mask tan ( Look Low Snorkeling)
  3. Life Vest tan ( OllieOverboard jet-ski rentals)
  4. Swimming floats tan ( Easy Ed beginning swim lessons)

And…if you didn’t know all of these tans, you need to take more tropical vacations! (except the coconut bra – that’s just weird – they never fit!) Hope you had fun!
