It is often difficult to find the correct type of material to challenge my son. This workbook was great! I could see the gears turning as he worked the puzzles. I would definetely recommend this workbook to parents who wish to stimulate their child's creative thinking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teach Your Children Problem Solving, August 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Gifted and Talented Puzzles and Games for Critical and Creative Thinking, Ages 6-8 (The Gifted & Talented Workbooks) (Paperback)

Problem solving is an important abstract skill that is often not cultivated in our children. Children need to exercise their brains and learn to think logically and creatively. This book is the answer. Both my children loved working on this book. It was not a chore--it was fun. It may be too easy for the average 8 year old. Works best on 6-7 year olds in my experience. I wish there were other books in this series geared to the older child. Individual pages would be excellent for homework or extra credit.

Nurturing thinking skills and ability benefits kids for a long time. Parents should intentionally let children exercise their brains and learn to think logically and creatively. This book is a great resource. My son has had a lot fun working on it. It opens his mind and intelligence. Since the early enrichment, he is doing pretty well in school and in homework. I signed up him to the free daily math exercise web site http://www.beestar.org. He is fairly outstanding among peers.
