18 of 18 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Will Shortz Presents The Monster Book of Sudoku for Kids: 150 Fun Puzzles (Paperback) This is a great book on Sudoku for kids. The book includes 150 puzzles. The puzzles are of various sizes: 4x4, 6x6, and 9x9. The solutions are at the end of the book. There are four levels of difficulty for the puzzles.The first four pages in this book are dedicated for strategy, hints, rules, or tips. All the puzzles in the book are Classic Sudoku (with numbers). There are no Alphabet Sudoku (with letters) or Symbol Sudoku (with shapes and symbols) like the two books "Kindergarten Sudoku" and "Super Sudoku for Kids". 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Will Shortz Presents The Monster Book of Sudoku for Kids: 150 Fun Puzzles (Paperback) I bought this for my 6yo who'd been watching me do Sudoku. He started on the 4x4 problems and was knocking them out in a couple of minutes each. He worked straight through for about an hour and made it through 35 getting to 'Level 2', 6x6 puzzles. These also started easy, but got more challenging. By the time he was almost at Level 3, 9x9 puzzles, the 6x6 had gotten as hard as 6x6's can get and were taking him ~10 minutes each. Now when he started the 9x9's he didn't get frustrated that they took longer, and he knew that as long as he didn't give up he'd get the answers.Frankly, I can't imagine how any book could have done a better job of teaching him Sudoku, such that he is confident with full size puzzles! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful By A KIWI (CHICAGO) - See all my reviews This review is from: Will Shortz Presents The Monster Book of Sudoku for Kids: 150 Fun Puzzles (Paperback) I bought this book for my 5 year old son, who was always looking over my shoulder with interest when I was doing my own sudoku puzzles. He was so interested, but I didn't think there were puzzles geared towards children - but this fits the bill perfectly. It starts off with easy puzzles and because they are, it gives them confidence that they can do them. He whizzed through the book and in no time was filling in the squares before I could even ask him what he thought the correct number would be. This definitely sharpens their minds and if your child loves numbers, they'll enjoy this. |
