I could spend a bundle on all of the fun products they have. What are some of your favorite products??? I'm looking at things for my DD5, DS7 and DS9.

Staceyshoe, my son likes Logic Links, Solitaire Chess, etc. Have you tried those? He also enjoys puzzle books, for example a puzzle book series called Brain Games. We should start a general problem solving / critical thinking thread one of these days. Striving to increase my rate of flow, and fight forum gloopiness.

She loves analogies but often isn't so hot on things that require her to write. She has no experience with things like logic games. Last edited by ultramarina; 06/29/11 11:32 AM.
