Each puzzle shows the left half of a simple picture on a grid. A bold line down the middle is the mirror. Children colour the matching squares on the right so the picture matches when folded.
Easy uses four small grids. Hard uses two larger grids with a more jagged picture — the squares stay big enough to colour, rather than shrinking the page.
Draw the other half of each picture.
The left side is given. Colour the matching squares on the right of the mirror line.

Puzzle 4
A symmetry generator that builds a connected pattern on one half of a square grid, then mirrors it exactly. The full solution is stored as data; the printed sheet hides the reflected half and leaves empty cells for the child to complete.
Skills practiced
Print tip: Filled squares print dark so the sheet works in black and white. The mirror line is thicker than the grid. Hard is two large puzzles on purpose — the cells stay easy to colour.
