Magic Squares Worksheet Generator

The Magic Squares generator creates classic number-grid puzzle worksheets where students fill in missing numbers so that every row, column, and diagonal adds up to the same magic constant. Supports 3×3 grids (numbers 1-9, magic constant 15) and 4×4 grids (numbers 1-16, magic constant 34) with three difficulty levels controlling how many cells are hidden. Number sets include standard consecutive integers, multiples of 2/3/5, and custom start numbers. Multiple puzzles per page (up to 4 for 3×3, up to 2 for 4×4). Optional magic number hint display. Each puzzle uses seeded random rotation and reflection for variety. Complete with student pages, answer keys, and five-section teacher guide.
