The puzzle of smart kids |
 |

I'll never forget the rainy day my younger brother, Eliot and I got a "Rubik's Cube". He solved it in less than an hour and I never did. I still get annoyed thinking about it! How on earth did he figure it out?
Are puzzles an indicator of higher intelligence? Maybe. My brother loved puzzles and he is one of the smartest people I know. He's now a successful banker (chance or coincidence?).
Of course, my Rubik's Cube went by the wayside and I chose to focus my energy in more important arenas like books and paper dolls. Whether your child loves puzzles or not, our philosophy is that child play remains simple and timeless.
Our family loves classic games and toys . Some of our new favorites include:
* Memory Games
* Parcheesi
* Card Games
I'd love to know what games do your kids love to play with?
