This month’s Puzzle Corner activity has a Valentine’s theme. In it, students are presented with the following scenario. Four friends are given a Valentine cookie with eight candy toppings placed in the geometric pattern. They are asked to divide the cookie into four identical pieces without cutting any of the cookie’s candy toppings. The challenge in this puzzle is to draw lines on the cookie picture to show where the cuts must be made.
