Mind Benders alternative for 3rd grader ???

[Aludlam]

My little LOVES logic. We have gone through the first 2 beginner books. It is now time for A1,etc. It doesn't seem that you get very much for your money with these books. Does anyone have a favorite alternative book (ie cheaper) to use for logic for this age group?

 

Thanks

Mindware company has Perplexors that work the same way. There are a lot more included in each book, also.

We have loved Prufrock Press for logic workbooks.

The Dell Logic Puzzles are the logic problems (mindbenders). I've not had luck finding them at the grocery story/drug store anymore, so I bought a set online. Much cheaper that way too.

 

Rewriting the grid for my son seems to work better - and only do the one star problems at an early age. (I did very well on the Graduate Record Exam because I'd been doing a bunch of the three star puzzles for fun in the months before. I was very grateful it helped so much - but be aware that the difficulty ramps up quickly!)

Thanks so much for the great suggestions and the link to the old post!
