Sudoku for Kids — questions

Is this sudoku for kids free?

Yes. It is free in the browser on phones, tablets and computers — no download and no sign-up needed to play.

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.
