About Puzzles for EveryBody™
The Puzzled Co. was started by Philip Einsohn, a former early-childhood educator turned Waterjet design expert. In 1977, Philip struggled to find educational puzzles that were inclusive of visually impaired students. He began crafting wood puzzles for his classroom and was one of the first to create braille puzzles for children. He jump-started The Puzzled Co. again in 2020. Using innovative technologies like Waterjet cutting and tactile printing, Philip realized his vision of inventing Puzzles for EveryBody™. This patent-pending puzzle design features tactile clues creating a unique, sensory puzzling experience and learning resource for sighted and visually impaired players. All puzzles are produced in-house by Waterjet Works, a family-run, Dallas-based, parent company.
