Logic problems with a trick for children
Trick logic problems are non-standard problems. At first glance, there is nothing unusual in the questions. But tricky tasks, as a rule, are not without a sense of humor. To give the correct answer you need to be very careful and be able to think. Tricky tasks are great for developing quick wits and out-of-the-box thinking. They encourage the child to listen to speech: to intonation, phonetic nuances, to recognize the polysemy of the same phrase.
For example, to the question “Why do geese swim?” I immediately want to answer: “Well, nature created them that way.” But in fact, you need to hear not “Why,” but “By what ,” and then the answer will be: “By water . The question “What is at the beginning of the book? "does not need to be taken literally. Correct answer: "Letter K" .
The tasks are not easy. Read the question slowly to your child several times. Give him time to think and find the right option.
Let's start guessing with the drawn problems. These are a few pages from my book.
