Why Do Logic Puzzles with Kids?

While logic puzzles are proved to be great for kids critical thinking, problem-solving, and memory retention, honestly, we love them because they're just plain fun. Logic puzzles get kids to put down screens and really think and engage. We were inspired to start doing these when I started seeing Murdle pop up on all the "best gift" lists during the holidays. If you've got teens, or adult puzzle-lovers in your life, be sure to check that out. They're even making a Murdle movie now!

Also, these puzzles are great for creativity, as once you start doing these, you'll want to start creating some of your own. Speaking of which...
