Something that Corbin likes to do is put together Lego sets. He likes to follow the directions and I like that there are directions that actually make something at the end.
My free build with Legos always turns into a rectangular house…boring! So, these sets have helped us practice reading directions, following sequence of steps, and understanding different ways to build.
We were at the library the other day and I saw this logic puzzle book. Flipping through it I knew that this was not an activity for Corbin and I, but it was perfect for Corbin and Chris. So I checked it out.
I have a limited mathematical mind. It’s just not my strong suit, but not to worry I have many others;)
Corbin and Chris sat down one evening and they both enjoyed puzzling over the problems together. Chris guided Corbin along and he loved it!
I probably should try some of those problems by myself so I can grow in the area of math. Good idea, but probably won’t happen. That just sounds like torture. Plus the book has the answers in the back and I’m weak. I look after about 2 minutes!
Logic and Legos have been happening around here this week.
