Description
Deductive Thinking Skills
Prepares your child for testing! Develops reading comprehension, logic, and problem solving.
Mind Benders®, our best-selling deductive thinking puzzles, develop the logic, reading comprehension, and mental organization skills vital to achieving higher grades and top test scores in all subjects. They’re also great for developing real-life, problem solving skills.
Students carefully analyze each Mind Benders® story and its clues, identifying logical associations between people, places, and things. The key is to start with the most obvious associations, then deduce less obvious associations until everything finally fits together.

Ratings and Reviews
I Think it’s Great!
I read the previous review and was a bit skeptical that this was a good app for people like me who like puzzles and riddles because of the fact it was said that this app didn’t work. But I myself am actually 12 years old and love it! I really think if you enjoy a challenge you would enjoy this app! But I would like to quickly mention that you need to purchase the full version to do all the puzzles
Each have two jobs
If Roberta went golfing with the police officer and the chef but Steve is the police officer and the nurse but it says that the nurse was assigned desk duty after spraining an ankle that means they he wouldn’t be able to go golfing cause he would have to stay if his foot for a few days before being able to walk on a boot? Also wouldn’t Vince not be able to be a heavy equipment operator if he only went to school till ninth grade and learned nothing else?
Sexist content
Was excited to try this because I love logic puzzles and wanted to introduce them to my son. We got stuck on the second one and when we looked at the solution it was due to the fact that the author wanted us to assume that a heavy machine operator was a job that could only be held by a man. I find that incredibly sexist. I was interested in several of the critical thinking products for my sons but will no longer consider them.
