Kids Puzzles
what are the puzzles called that use basically only pictures for words?
The kind of puzzles that kids do with pictures that are supposed represent words? Where can I find some? thanks
In the USA they are probably known as “rebus” puzzles.
I am British and know them as “Dingbats” or “Dingbat puzzles”. Other names that I have seen them called are “Frame Game”, “Wotsits”, “Whatsits” and “Say what you see puzzles”.
Here is the dictionary definition of “rebus”
noun, plural -buses.
1. a representation of a word or phrase by pictures, symbols, etc., that suggest that word or phrase or its syllables: Two gates and a head is a rebus for Gateshead.
2. a piece of writing containing many such representations
Here are some examples of “dingbats”
