There are many Christmas puzzles released every year. But the best are the annual limited edition Christmas puzzles from Waddington’s, Ravensburger, Gibsons, and House of Puzzles. They’re very collectible and the quality puts them way above your average Santa-with-his-sack jigsaw.

On this page we’ll show you what they all are.  And watch our blog for previews of next years!
