For over 34 years I have taught gifted and high-achieving children and young adults. When I created MERIT, a program that pulled gifted students for one day a week, I used The Critical Thinking Co.™ materials exclusively. Mind Benders®, Critical Thinking, etc. Today I am retired and use your materials... especially for bright autistic students, and my 'twice exceptional' students. Without a doubt, your company's materials have helped me become one of Tennessee's two National Teachers' Hall of Fame inductees! I owe a lot to your wonderful and unique materials.

Some of our students who've returned home from college tell us that, of all the things they picked up in the gifted program, the one thing that helped them most was the <i>Mind Benders®</i>.

<i>Mind Benders®</i> has helped our students perform better on multiple choice tests. The puzzles improve reading comprehension and sequencing as well as general critical thinking. Our scores keep going up!

We love your <i>Mind Benders®</i>....I find the deductive reasoning invaluable. It has helped my [students] very much. They love to figure them out. I have observed them using the deductive thinking in other areas of study and just in daily problems or situations.

These books are great for stimulating a child's thinking skills needed for other schoolwork, standardized tests, and problems in daily life…and kids think they're fun!
