Use Your Brain 6 – Kids Brain Games, Math & Logic Puzzle Workbook

Use Your Brain 6 – Kids Brain Games, Math & Logic Puzzle Workbook (Bilingual Arabic–English, Ages 4–8, Printable PDF) is a colourful activity book packed with smart puzzles that turn early learning into a fun challenge. This kids workbook combines brain games, logic puzzles, counting activities, addition and subtraction practice, shadow matching, front/back matching and “odd one out” tasks – all printed on large notebook-style pages that are easy for young children to use.

On the cover, a smiling child in winter clothes holds a big gift box while a friendly pencil girl shows a mini activity sheet with different pictures. The bright sea and green hills in the background instantly tell children that this book is about playing, thinking and discovering in a cheerful, friendly world.

Superfluous objects, logic and real-life thinking

The first activity page invites children to “What IS Superfluous?” around a winter boy. He is dressed in a warm coat, hat and boots, while objects float around him: sunglasses, a snowflake, a cloud, flowers, gloves, shorts, sandals, a mushroom, a cup, socks and more. Kids must choose which items do not fit the scene or the season. This type of puzzle develops logical thinking, categorising and real-world understanding as children decide which clothes and objects are suitable for cold weather and which are not.

Fun addition with pictures

Next, children practise early maths with a clear “Addition Fun” page. Small groups of pictures – such as pairs of sunglasses and rows of reading glasses – are added together, and kids choose the correct answer from three possible numbers. Because the problems are completely visual, children who are still learning numerals can understand the idea of combining two groups to make a total without feeling anxious about maths.

Find 2 same pictures & “different picture” puzzles

Several pages focus on visual discrimination and attention to detail. One page asks kids to “Find 2 Same Pictures” among a group of ducks and geese in different poses. Another page shows four almost identical scarecrows; children must “Find the different picture” by studying the hat, scarf, jacket and straw carefully. These activities build concentration, memory and careful observation, which are crucial skills for reading and writing later on.

Matching pictures, shadows and shapes

“Match the pictures” pages ask children to connect related objects. For example, they might match a birdhouse with a bird, a cup with a drink, a key with a lock, a knife with a lemon and a vase with a flower. These matching games help kids understand relationships between objects and strengthen vocabulary in both Arabic and English.

Shadow-matching pages are labelled “Find The Correct Shadow”. In one, a happy monkey holds a giant banana while several monkey shadows surround the page. In another, a child rides a scooter, and multiple scooter shadows appear around the notebook. Later on, a friendly cow sits with a laptop and kids must again choose the correct outline. Matching each picture to its shadow trains shape recognition, visual attention and logical matching skills.

Front & back matching – people and animals

Two pages titled “Back and front” ask children to connect the front view of characters to their backs. One page features people in different outfits (such as a doctor, pilot or everyday characters), while another page shows cute animals like pandas, tigers, koalas, deer and penguins. Children draw lines between the front and back views, learning about orientation, perspective and how things look from different angles.

Counting games: How many watermelons and lemons?

Counting skills are developed through “How Many?” pages. A full notebook page is filled with watermelons and lemons scattered around. Children are asked to count how many watermelons and how many lemons they can see. This encourages number sense, counting accuracy and visual tracking. A later “How Many?” page offers another counting challenge with different objects, giving children a chance to apply what they’ve learned.

Shape matching & everyday objects

Another matching page focuses on geometric shapes and real-world items. Simple shapes such as circles, rectangles and triangles appear on the left, while on the right kids see familiar items like pizza slices, doughnuts, leaves, books and patterned cards. Children match each shape with the object that shares the same outline, reinforcing shape recognition, classification and early geometry.

Spot the differences & fun subtraction

A lovely “Spot 3 Differences” page shows a girl with pink hair, a cat and a little chick. The top and bottom pictures look almost the same, but three small details have changed. Children must spot and circle the differences, building patience, observation and attention to detail.

On the “Subtraction Fun” page, rows of small turtles walk across the notebook. In each row, one or more turtles are crossed out, and children complete the subtraction equation on the right. This concrete display of “take away” makes subtraction easy to understand and enjoyable, especially for visual learners.

More “odd one out” and identical picture challenges

Later in the book, children are invited again to “Find the different picture” in a series of images featuring the pencil girl and a butterfly. One of the four pictures has a small change (for example, a flower, hand position or accessory), and kids must decide which one is unique. Another page filled with adorable cats asks them to “Find 2 identical pictures” among many grey cats in different poses. These games further develop pattern recognition, visual memory and comparison skills.

Choose the correct objects & one last addition fun

Near the end, a page labelled “Choose The Correct Objects” challenges children to select the items that fit a particular scene or rule, while ignoring those that do not. Another “Addition Fun” page uses new sets of pictures to review visual addition before children finish the book. Final activities include more shadow matching, “Match the pictures” and a last “How Many?” page to consolidate counting and observation.

With its mix of maths puzzles, logic challenges, visual brain games and bilingual instructions, Use Your Brain 6 – Kids Brain Games, Math & Logic Puzzle Workbook (Bilingual Arabic–English, Ages 4–8, Printable PDF) is a powerful yet playful resource for building early learning skills at home, in classrooms, in nurseries and in learning centres.
