Start with familiar rules
Word search is usually the safest easy puzzle choice because the reader can scan at their own pace, pause anywhere, and return without relearning rules.
Use large print first
Large print matters more than total puzzle count when the goal is comfortable daily use. Bigger clues and grids help the book feel easier before difficulty even enters the picture.
Add variety carefully
Easy-to-hard Sudoku is useful when the reader enjoys logic, but it should come after or alongside a gentler word search option if you are not sure about skill level.
