Guess what! Its Friday, and here is another 4×4 Hidato puzzle. I know what you’re thinking, Scott, that isnt on a post-it!! Well you got me there – I thought I would mix it up a little this week.

I am actually quite surprised with myself – this is the third week in a row that I have done my weekly hidato puzzle. Woo Hoo!

This weeks puzzle has at least 2 solutions (maybe more), see how many you can find.

Okay folks, Here is the second installment of my weekly Hidato Puzzle. There are at least 2 solutions to this one, see if you can find them both (there may be more too). (I put this one on a blue post-it to mix it up a little)

I read that these puzzles are supposed to have both the first and last number given – whoops, my bad for last week. Don’t worry, it won’t happen again.

It seems that quite a few of my readers like Hidato puzzles. As a result, I have decided to try and add a weekly Hidato puzzle to the site every Friday. As I will create them on a post-it, I’ll call them it “Friday’s Post-it Kidato”.

Originally I thought about creating them electronically, but then was worried it would make this site seem too much like all the other sites out there. I am hoping that my scribbles onto a post-it note make things come across as a bit more whimsical and fun.

Feel free to leave a comment with your found solutions! Now here is our first puzzle, how many paths can you find?

Hidato Rules
The idea of Hidato is to connect all the given numbers with consecutive numbers. Numbers must be adjacent to each other and can connect either vertically, diagonally, or horizontally. All spaces in the grid must be complete – in this cases, #’s 1 through 16.
