How would you like to design and make your own brain teaser and then have it sold worldwide with your name and photo on the box?

 

Well here’s your chance!

Once again, Inquizitive has teamed up with the Dr Wood Challenge Centre to bring the students of Tasmania the Exercise Your Mind Challenge competition.

Since the 2008 Australian Toy fair the Dr Wood Challenge Centre has released 10 volumes of the Mind Challenge Classic Series.

The competition involves designing and making your own original brain teaser. All entries will be judged by the inventors at The Dr Wood Challenge Centre. They will decide on a winner and then the winning brain teaser will be produced as one of Dr Woods Challnege Centres brainteasers.

In addition the winning individual/team will win a $100 Inquizitive Gift Voucher and the winning school will receive a $250 Inquizitive Gift Voucher.

Inquizitive is an independent educational toys, games, puzzles and gift shop based in Kings Meadows, Launceston and The Dr Wood Challenge Centre currently produces games like Kogworks (Australian Game of the Year 2009) and the Kaleidoscope Classic.

Just think your brain teaser could be challenging minds right around the world!
