How to use this worksheet
- 1
On the sudoku sheet, let your child cut out small paper shapes and place them before drawing. Moving pieces makes it easy to try an idea and change it.
- 2
Read the riddles aloud and stop after each clue. Ask which pictures are still possible — that is the reasoning, and it matters more than the final circle.
- 3
For "Which One Does Not Belong?", accept any answer your child can explain. The explanation is the point of the page.
