Scrabble is one of those games that has been around for ages.  You either love it or you don't.

We sell it in this, the bonanza version,  or in a junior version.

2 - 4 players

Age suitability: 10 - Adult

Single person brain teaser game for children age 7 and upwards.

Choose one of the eighty challenges.  They start easy but get harder and harder as you work through the book.

You'll be told the outcome of the battle between the two pirate ships and the 4 navy ships, which side ends up being sunk and which victorious.  Place the two rock pieces where indicated on the board and then work out where to place all the ships.  Each ship has canons on both sides, so if you place them side by side, both ships sink.  If you place them side on, just one will sink.

Cat Crimes is a single player brain game in which you have to identify which of the six cats committed the crime. So choose a challenge card, put the crime token on the board and then using the clues on the card work out where each of the cats were sitting.  The one sitting opposite the token is the culprit.

Age suitability: 8 years+

Visually very appealing (we keep it open on our shop counter), Sleeping Beauty is a great brain game for 3 to 7 year olds.  There is a booklet with 60 challenges.  The first half are designed for the younger children who have to find a path through the maze to and from the Castle.  In the second half, for 5+ year olds, a dragon has to be placed on the board to stop the knight getting to the Castle.

Please see the video to see how to do it:

SG025

Single person brain teaser for anyone aged between 7 and 99.

Described as the ultimate solitaire; place the four magnetic base plates together to form your playing board and then try to position the twelve coloured pieces.  It's not always too easy.  There is a booklet with 60 challenges to get you going but any number of different challeges are possible.  Good luck.

Please have a look at the video for more details.
