Uncle Art's Funland Sunday page sample

Uncle Art's Funland provides hours of entertainment and education for kids of all ages. Jokes, word and math games, connect the dots, optical illusions and crosswords are just some of the puzzles found in the Sunday feature, which is distributed to 100 newspapers nationwide by United Feature Syndicate.

Artist Art Nugent attributes much of the success of Uncle Art's Funland to its being one of the few newspaper features created exclusively for children. "Some cartoons aren't really meant for children", Nugent says. "The language is too complicated and the jokes are too hard for them to understand". With Uncle Art's Funland, however, toddlers enjoy coloring the pictures, while older children work the puzzles. The feature's weekly contest, which usually includes a puzzle and a coloring section, is a favorite with Uncle Art's readers. More than 2.000 entries are received each week and 25 lucky entrants receive prizes. Uncle Art's Funland has been delighting readers for more than 70 years.
