Use Your Brain 11 – Kids Brain Games, Math & Logic Puzzle Workbook

Use Your Brain 11 – Kids Brain Games, Math & Logic Puzzle Workbook (Bilingual Arabic–English, Ages 4–8, Printable PDF) is a colourful countryside-themed activity book designed to stretch young minds through fun, screen-free challenges. Each page is laid out like a big spiral notebook and focuses on a single brain game: counting, addition, subtraction, opposites, shadow matching, “How Many?” challenges, spot-the-difference, matching pictures, superfluous objects and direction matching.

On the cover, a cheerful girl with pink hair walks along a sunny path with her dog, holding a basket, while a friendly pencil character shows her picture on a notepad. Green hills, trees and birds in the background create a calm outdoor atmosphere that tells children this workbook is about exploring, thinking and playing with ideas, not boring drills.

Fun “How Many?” counting games with silly characters

The first challenge inside Use Your Brain 11 is a bright “How Many?” page filled with funny purple and blue monster faces clustered together on the notebook. Children are asked to count how many of each type they can find, developing number sense, counting accuracy and visual scanning. A later “How Many?” spread is packed with elephants and giraffes wearing festive hats and holding gifts; kids must again count each group carefully, reinforcing early maths in a playful way.

Find 3 differences – beekeeper, police officer and more

Observation skills are strengthened through several “Find 3 Differences” puzzles. On one page, a smiling beekeeper stands beside a beehive while bees buzz around him. Children compare the top and bottom pictures to spot three small changes in details such as the hive, the bees or the beekeeper’s clothes.

Another spot-the-difference page shows a friendly police officer standing next to a patrol car, traffic light and road barrier. Kids search for three differences between the two scenes – perhaps a missing signal, a changed facial expression or a car detail – improving attention to detail, memory and concentration. Later pages repeat the “Find 3 Differences” idea with new scenes, giving extra practice without feeling repetitive.

Choose the correct objects – farm, celebration & doctor scenes

Several pages invite children to “Choose The Correct Objects” around a central scene. On one page, a red barn stands in the middle, while objects such as a rooster, cow, pig, wheelbarrow, shovel, carrots, tomatoes and broccoli float around it together with unrelated items like a penguin, banana or fire truck. Kids must select the items that really belong on the farm, building categorising skills and real-world understanding.

Another page features a child in a bunny costume holding letters that spell “EASTER”. Around the child are chocolates, cupcakes, eggs, baskets and decorative items mixed with random objects like a pumpkin or boot. Children choose the appropriate festive objects, practising logic, vocabulary and context awareness.

A later “What is Superfluous?” scene shows a doctor in a white coat surrounded by a stethoscope, syringe, medicine bottle and bandage, as well as unrelated items such as a saw, watering can, headphones or frying pan. Kids decide which tools are correct for a doctor and which are not, reinforcing critical thinking and everyday knowledge about professions.

Addition Fun & Subtraction Fun with animals and frogs

Math skills are woven throughout the workbook. On the “Addition Fun” page early in the book, children add groups of cows, camels and donkeys, then choose the correct answer from three numbers in boxes. Each equation is built from pictures first, helping kids understand that addition means joining two sets before they deal with abstract numerals.

Later, another “Addition Fun” page returns with different pictures, giving children more practice in a game-style format that feels rewarding instead of stressful.

Two “Subtraction Fun” pages focus on frogs and camels. On one spread, rows of small frogs line up on the notebook; in each row, one or more frogs are crossed out and children complete equations such as “–1”, “–2” or “–3”. On another page, camels stand in neat rows and some are crossed out; kids again fill in the remaining number. These activities show subtraction as taking away real objects from a group, making it easy and intuitive for young learners.

Opposites game – CLOSED/OPEN, SILENCE/NOISY and more

Language skills get a boost from the colourful Opposites game. One page shows English words like CLOSED, SILENCE, OLD, PRICKLY and WIDE with matching pictures (a closed book, quiet sign, old phone, hedgehog, wide road). On the other side, children see FLUFFY, NARROW, OPEN, NOISY and NEW with corresponding images (soft toy, small path, open window, ringing bell, new clock). Kids draw lines between each pair of opposites, building a strong vocabulary of adjectives and their meanings while reinforcing the idea of contrast.

Matching cups, cakes, animals and shadows

Matching games are another highlight of this kids brain-workbook. A “Match the pictures” page shows colourful plates or donuts on the left and mugs, cups and jugs on the right. Children connect each plate design with the matching cup design, sharpening visual discrimination and pattern recognition.

Shadow-matching activities appear many times. One page features a happy cow in the centre, surrounded by several black cow silhouettes; children must find the correct shadow. A later page displays outlines of safari animals on the left (such as a leopard or deer) and their coloured versions on the right, and kids match each animal to its shadow. Another scene shows beach and travel objects – like a suitcase, camera, lifebuoy, soap bottle and boat – with silhouettes on one side and coloured pictures on the other. Shadow matching builds shape recognition, attention to outline and logical matching skills.

Find identical pictures & spot the different picture

A farm-themed page asks children to “Find two identical pictures” among sheep, donkeys, horses, cows, hens and ducklings. They must scan carefully, comparing each animal’s pose, colour and details to locate the exact pair. This improves visual memory, comparison and perseverance.

Another activity presents four images of the same girl and her dog – the characters from the cover – with tiny differences in each drawing. Children must “Find the different picture”, reinforcing attention to detail and pattern recognition. Similar odd-one-out tasks appear later, giving kids additional opportunities to practise.

Match by direction – clever cat orientation game

Spatial awareness is targeted on the “Match By Direction” page. Wooden arrows on the left point in different directions, while black cats on the right face left, right, up or down. Children draw lines between the arrow and the cat facing the same way. This simple game improves direction recognition, left–right understanding and orientation, important skills for reading, writing and navigating the world.

Further pages in the second half of the workbook revisit subtraction, addition, “How Many?” counting and superfluous-object puzzles, ensuring that children get balanced practice in math, logic, language and visual skills while enjoying varied illustrations and themes.

Because every activity is labelled in both Arabic and English – for example, “How Many – كم العدد”, “Subtraction Fun – متعة الطرح”, “Opposites game – لعبة الأضداد”, “Find two identical pictures – ابحث عن صورتين متطابقتين” – Use Your Brain 11 doubles as a gentle bilingual learning resource. Families and schools can use it to build thinking skills and vocabulary in both languages at the same time.

Delivered as a printable PDF, this kids brain games, math and logic workbook is ideal for home learning, classroom centres, tutoring, after-school clubs, travel packs and quiet-time activities. Print individual pages or the whole book, and reprint favourite puzzles whenever children want another round of brain-training fun.
