A boy, his sister, parents, and grandmother—plus their dog—were busy completing their evergreen plant in this puzzle (@shutterstock).
Still, there was much more to be found in this heartwarming scene, including the wreath above the fireplace.
The objects you must spot to win the brain teaser include a cat, a small tree, a festive mug, a glass of champagne, a rocking horse, a Santa hat, a snowman, a candle holder, a lollipop and a piece of wrapped candy.
Before you start straining your eyes, the easiest thing to find is a brown cat with wide yellow eyes hiding in the middle of a tree surrounded by lights and candy canes.
Grandma may have been busy holding a tray of freshly baked gingerbread cookies, but there was still work to be done.
The next two finds that were spotted included a star mug and a champagne glass.
Both objects were secretly hidden inside a picture frame on the wall behind a tree with a picture of a dog between them.
While dad was holding the little girl so she could decorate the tree with a yellow star, something could be seen under his sweater – Santa’s hat, with a pompom just above grandma’s head.
And he wasn’t the only one hiding something.
If you looked closely, the rocking horse was visible inside the circular pattern on Mom’s orange and red sweater.
Now it’s time to go back to the tree.
Scan one row of lights, then the red decoration above the hiding cat and you’ll see it: a bell with a bow inside a red sock.
With even more objects, you can still prove your puzzle testing skills.
To the left of the brown kitty, under a string of lights, was a candle wrapped inside a candy cane hanging from a tree.
While the top of the wrapper was visible within the ribbon around the stick, the lower part of the wrapper blended in with the green of the tree.
Now it’s time to take this quest to the next level – or at least above the cat.
Just follow the string of lights above the animal and inside the first blue ornament on the left is a lollipop – swirl and all.
Complete with a star on top, a smaller version of the family Christmas tree was spotted on the boy’s green sweater as he sat next to the real tree with another ornament in hand.
Inside the box of ornaments next to the boy was another find.
Look a little closer and you’ll see three ornaments lined up – two blue with one orange ball in the middle – plus a little red square hat – all together make one very festive snowman.
Between the box of ornaments and the spotted dog with a blue ribbon tied around its neck trying to grab cookies from Grandma’s tray was this find: a red striped candle.
If you spotted them all, you can now be crowned the best puzzles of the season.
There’s also an answer key if you want to check your answers – or speed things up.
According to completingthepuzzle.com, those who are adept at this type of teasing tend to be detail-oriented and problem-solvers, and are also highly organized.
