Gifts for Thinkers

Are you looking for a gift for a child who loves puzzles and thinking? For that smart, inquisitive type who wants to know the rules precisely, who wants to win, and starts over immediately if it doesn't work out? We call that a thinker.

In this selection, you'll find thinking games and puzzles that gradually increase in difficulty: logic games with challenge cards from easy to almost impossible, puzzles with ascending difficulty, strategic board games, single-player brain teasers, and sorting and shape games for the very youngest. Many of these games can be played alone, which is handy when there's no playmate around.
