Introduction: Fun With Shapes - Fun Filled Geometry!
In this instructable, I will teach you how to create your own teasers using simple items that you find in your house. Creating your own puzzle/brain teaser enables you to be a creative thinker and a problem solver! You can amaze your friends with your teasers!
For teachers and parents- This is so much fun to use 3D interactives and help our little ones think. It also refreshes and strengthens our thinking as well.
To help you begin, I will share with you some simple teasers. Some of these teasers are really simple and some are challenging as well. Have fun making your own and be amazed with what you can do!
The inspiration to make these brain teasers came from multiple sources including my mom and my grandparents. I enjoyed solving these as a kid and as a mom!
Here are some of the online links that I used as an inspiration.
