How to play Sudoku for Kids
Choose 4×4 easy (digits 1–4), 6×6 medium or 6×6 hard (digits 1–6).
Every row, every column and every box must have each digit exactly once.
Look for a row, column or box with just one empty square — or a square where only one digit fits. Type it. Clashing digits turn red.
Press ✓ Check when the grid is full. 3 grids a round — solve all 3 on 6×6 for the Sudoku Solver badge.

Which size should my child start with?
Start with 4×4 (digits 1 to 4, boxes of 2×2) from about age 6. When it feels easy, move to 6×6 (digits 1 to 6, boxes of 2 rows × 3 columns), then 6×6 hard.
Does every puzzle have only one answer?
Yes. Our computer removes digits only while the grid can still be solved one square at a time, and our tests check thousands of puzzles with a full solver — so there is exactly one answer and never a guess.
How do children solve sudoku?
Find a row, column or box with only one gap, or a square where only one digit is still possible. Write it in and look again — each new digit makes the next one easier.
