Mensa Kids Books Review

12 May 2016 by Eileen

Mensa Train Your Brain: Cranium Crunchers and Perplexing Puzzles books are out now to buy from Carlton Books. These books are written by Dr Gareth Moore. They are suitable for ages seven and above.  It will provide your child plenty of challenging puzzles for them to solve!

Each book is split into three levels of difficulty, called Super Brain, Mega Mind and Ultra Genius. The levels get considerably harder as the book progresses and as kids improve their puzzle solving skills. The different types of challenges – numerical, logical and word – will test all areas of puzzle solving. All the answers can be found at the back of the book.

Cranium Crunchers contains 84 challenging puzzles that test your thinking skills and your mental abilities. Mr K, who always loves a challenge, enjoys this book and the questions help him to think logically. He was able to solve many of the puzzles, and only occasionally he would need me to help explain the trickier puzzles to him. I do find some questions are hard but again these questions are approved by Mensa which is a network for clever people. It really helps us all to learn.

Perplexing Puzzles also contains 84 challenging puzzles that pits your wits against visual puzzles, missing-letter games, logic problems and other tricky challenges. These two books are definitely great to challenge older children and test their number, word and logic skills!  Kids will have fun putting their brain to the test and seeing how many puzzles they can work out correctly.

Disclosure: We received the sample for the purposes of writing this review however all thoughts and opinions remain our own.
