Ready to try some easy cryptograms?These are great way to break into the decoding fun of cryptography. When solving any cryptogram, remember that each letter of the alphabet represents a different letter.

For example, if you decide that X = T, then every X in that puzzle will also represent T. But that doesn't mean that T = X. For more complete instructions, read our Tips on Solving Cryptograms.

We'll give you some specific hints to help you solve the puzzles on this page. Use the links for the printable cryptograms and solutions.
