The Sudoku Safe: Picture Sudoku and 4x4 Number Sudoku Puzzle

Children solve a 4x4 picture Sudoku using crown, gem, key and vase tiles, then use each treasure's number to read the safe's code. A second 4x4 number Sudoku opens a second lock. Both puzzles teach 'use what you know to find what you do not know'.
