Ready to wind your thoughts around some a mindbenders.


Q1. One to Laugh At

 What is the difference between a fly and a mosquito?


Q2. T-shirt Teaser


Scruffy Sam has put on his T-shirt. Unfortunately it is inside out and back to front. Normally the washing label is on the inside of the left sleeve. Where is it now?

Q3. Number Anagram


Claire has put some letter blocks together to make the following sum:

ONE + TWELVE = THIRTEEN

Nicola uses all these blocks but rearranges some of them to get a different sum, which is also correct. Then Claire replaces the I with the E and inserts another + block. She rearranges the blocks again and once more the result is correct.

Can you find the two new versions?

Q4. Can you do it?


You have a cylindrical can of the sort that baked beans are sold in. You want to fill it exactly one quarter full of water but you have no measuring instrument and the can is not graduated in any way (though you can scratch it yourself if you wish).

How should you proceed

Q5. Polar bearings


You are travelling to the North Pole by sled, but your huskies are too enthusiastic and you overshoot the Pole slighty. Will east be to your left or right?
