  • Symbol Sudokus for children

    Symbol Sudokus for children

    Sudokus are everywhere: in almost every shop to buy, and on the internet as free printables or to play online. So why another post about Sudokus? Because it is not easy to find good Sudoku puzzles for children, and it is even less easy to find Sudokus with symbols. Worksheetworks.com, however, offers a free symbol Sudoku generator. Simply choose the symbols, how many Sudoku puzzles you want (one or four per page), choose the difficulty level, and click “create worksheet”. You get a PDF which you can save or print. Both a solution and an explanation of the solution are included.

    We like symbol sudokus very much. Young children can solve them as well and are very proud of being able to do the same kind of puzzles as adults. Older children like the extra challenge of drawing the symbols – this trains creativity and visual perception. What more can you wish?

  • Einstein’s riddle

    Einstein’s riddle

    A lot is said about Einstein. Much of it cannot be proved. Such as the theory that Einstein is the inventor of the logical puzzles, also called “Einstein’s Puzzle”. Whether this is true or not is not important here. There are many variations of the Einstein puzzle. Einstein is said to have claimed that only 2% of the world population can solve this puzzle. We make the bold antithesis that anyone who can read and combine carefully can solve this puzzle. Even children, although they might need some help according to age and reading experience.
    We have converted the Einstein riddle into a child-friendly version. There is no smoking or drinking alcohol, but there are sweets and non-alcoholic beverages. The question remains the same: Who has fish?
