Clip Clue Puzzles (Levels A and B)
by Evelyn B. Christensen

If you thought paper clips were just for holding papers, you're in for a fun surprise with these two sets of puzzles. Read the clues, then arrange a clip chain that satisfies all the clues. As you work the puzzles alone or in small groups, become a sharper thinker by improving skills in problem-solving, analyzing, evaluating, and reading. Each book has 100 puzzles. (Note: the last 36 puzzles in Level A utilize math skills, as well as logic.)

Level A is for grades 3-5. Level B is for grade 5 and up.

Sample puzzle (Number 77 from Level A):

The chain has 4 clips numbered in sequence 1-4.
Clue 1: Use 2 purple clips and 2 red clips.
Clue 2: The sum of the red clips is even.
Clue 3: One purple clip is twice the other purple clip.

These books are available from MindWare.
