✏️ What your child will do

Your child looks at each 4×4 grid and draws the missing shapes so that no shape repeats in any row, column or 2×2 box.

🎯 What your child will learn

  • Logical thinking
  • Recognising and drawing shapes
  • Paying attention to rows and columns

🧰 You will need

  • Pencil
  • Crayons – red, blue, green, yellow

👣 How to do it

  1. Point to one row and name the shapes already in it.
  2. Find which shape is missing.
  3. Check the column and the thick box too – the shape must not already be there.
  4. Draw (or colour) the shape in the empty box.
  5. Finish all four puzzles, then check with the answer key.

💡 Tips for parents

  • Use crayons in the same colours as the shapes.
  • Start with a row that has only one empty box.
