What your child learns

  • Spotting repeating patterns: AB, AAB, ABB, ABC…
  • Noticing details: shapes that differ only in color or form
  • Reasoning to find a missing piece in the middle

How to play

  1. Look at the row and find the box with a question mark.
  2. Pick one of the three pictures below to fill it in.
  3. A right answer colors the box and a new puzzle starts.

For parents

  • Say the row out loud ("apple, banana, apple, banana…") to hear the pattern.
  • Puzzles get longer, use more pictures, and the gap can move to the middle.
  • After two wrong tries, the right answer blinks as a hint.
