Logic Workbook for Gritty Kids: Spatial reasoning, math puzzles, word games, logic problems, activities, two-player games. (The Gritty Little Lamb ... & STEM skills in kids ages 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.)

This book requires logical thought and not learned answers which makes it fun and interesting and not like doing homework.

I am a retired math teacher. I have been disappointed with the lack of critical thinking materials my grandchildren use in school (SK - grade 2) This book (part of a larger series of 3-4 books) was a true saviour for us. Not only it makes the kids THINK but my grandkids also ENJOYED doing the tasks/exercises/activities. (My grandson is 6, my granddaughter is 8). Mr Allbaugh (the author) has created (and maybe also collected?) a vast range of tasks - each more interesting than the other. The range of levels of difficulty is perfect: from the ones that would build confidence to ones that require patience and a few tries. Nothing tricky but nothing trivial either.If you care about developing your kids/grandkids critical thinking - do get this!PS: When a kid starts a new task I recommend an adult is there to make sure the kid understands it correctly and starts it successfully.

Bought this as a way to prep a child for the non-verbal reasoning component of the 11 plus. The design of the book and the cover is very different to most other material from companies and publishers who produce books, flash cards and other study aids. As a result i have found it results in better engagement as it is presented in a fun and engaging way. It probably challenge 10 year olds as much as it might do 6-8 year olds. The answers at the back make it useful to work backwards and figure out the route to the answers to the puzzles and questions.

We love it

My 7 year old just got into this. It’s really good fun and challenging.
