Puzzle 02 / 10 in Figgle
Patchwork:
a logic puzzle for kids
Carve the board into patches. Each number tells you exactly how big.
How to play
- Split the whole board into rectangular patches.
- Each patch holds one number.
- The number is how many squares the patch covers.
A tip to get started
Start with the biggest numbers or the ones squeezed into a corner. They have the fewest shapes that fit.
What it practises
Area and early multiplication. A 6-patch can be 1×6 or 2×3, so "six squares" becomes something you can see.
