I have always enjoyed having a go on a Rubik's cube.... have I ever completed one?
No, but it is a life long mission of mine than has now been passed down on to the boys.
We have an old cube in the house that I've had since I was a child and I'm sure it has had some stickers removed and added on top of others in a bid to try and out smart it, but yet no one has actually managed to complete it yet!
So when I was contacted about become a Rubik's blogger I was more than keen to sign up ..... maybe this would be my chance at finally figuring out the secret to getting all those little squares matched up.
John Adams have a huge range of Rubik's toys, which when I looked actually blew my mind at the vast range as I wasn't aware at how many there were, so I was eagerly excited about seeing which Rubik's toys turned up on the doorstep.
In our first package were these very cute Rubik's Junior animal puzzles which are suitable for children ages 4 and up.
There are four designs to collect;
Puppy, Kitten, Bunny and Bear.
The twins picked the dog and bear puzzles to try their hand at ....
I adore the design, cute and sweet. Perfect for little hands!
Just perfect for little problem solvers!
They always get so frustrated at trying to do the original cube, so it was nice to hand them something that I knew they would be able to do.
As soon as they were unboxed they couldn't wait to juggle the colours around and race each other to see who could get it back to normal first.
The Rubik’s Junior puzzle is the ideal puzzle for little problem solvers.
The cute twistable character is so easy to grip and turn.
Twist the blocks to create a crazy mixed-up animal, but with relatively few combinations. It is easy to solve whist keeping your child entertained.
It took them a few tries but it didn't take them long to solve it.
They then decided to mix up each others and then see if they could solve it.
The puzzles are great for kids as they aren't as tricky as the original and they don't take too long to solve, which helps kids stay focus and not give up to easily.
The twins didn't struggle solving them, but they did have to think about how the colours and shapes went together, so it was nice to see their thinking faces!
I'm sure Alex even stuck out his tongue at one point.
The guys over at John Adams have give me one Kitten puzzle & one Bunny puzzle to giveaway to two lucky readers...
