The learning connection
By physically searching for hints, children embody their learning process, leading to deeper engagement. This aligns with Vygotsky’s scaffolding approach, where they receive guided support from family members while developing problem-solving strategies.
Try it with your learner
1. Create a 6x6 Sudoku grid on paper, filled with a few numbers. 2. Hide 6 clues around your home, each representing a number from 1-6. 3. Give your child hints about where to find each number (e.g., 'Where do we keep the sweets?'). 4. Each time a clue is found, fill in the Sudoku grid with that number. 5. Repeat until all clues are found and the grid is complete. 6. Check if the solution is correct — solve together if there are mistakes!
