Rebus Puzzles: Cognitive Development Puzzles For Adults and Children - Paperback

by All About Psychology (Author)

A rebus puzzle uses a combination of letters, words, pictures, symbols, numbers etc to represent a common phrase or saying. Your job as the puzzle solver is to work out what the puzzle is trying to say.

Here's an example:

THODEEPUGHT

The word DEEP in the middle of the letters and the remaining letters spell out the word THOUGHT. So, the answer to this puzzle is 'deep in thought'.

Talking of 'deep in thought', rebus puzzles are brilliant for cognitive development. Cognitive development refers to how we think and attempt to understand the world around us, it refers to how we learn, develop and, apply knowledge; including how we acquire, comprehend and use language. Rebus puzzles help with all these aspects of brain development at any age

Additional learning opportunities for kids

The first part of the book includes 52 rebus puzzles (four on each page). The second part of the book is where you will find the answers. The answer pages offer lots of additional opportunities for children to consolidate and build upon their learning.

Encourage children to explain how they were able to solve the puzzle. With a rebus puzzle it is possible to get the right answer but not fully understand what the answer means. For example, a child may be unsure as to what a particular phrase means. This is a great teaching opportunity for you and a great learning opportunity for them.

Satisfy your inner puzzler

The final part of the book includes blank boxes where any other rebus puzzles you come across can be jotted down. Better still, these blank boxes can be used to record any rebus puzzles you create yourself.
