My kids love brain games. But our newest one — Knot So Fast<\/a> — is like nothing we’ve ever tried before.<\/p>\n

\"Knot
\n The game comes with a metal ring, a length of blue rope, and a spiral bound book with 40 knot-tying challenges.<\/p>\n

\"Fun<\/p>\n

Kids must simply follow the diagram to produce the knots illustrated.<\/p>\n

\"Knot<\/p>\n

The knots become progressively more difficult as you work your way through the book.<\/p>\n

\"Another<\/p>\n

Not only does Knot So Fast<\/a> hone one’s powers of observation, but it simultaneously teaches a useful skill.<\/p>\n

\"Another<\/p>\n

Knot So Fast<\/a> may be purchased through Timberdoodle<\/a> individually or as part of their 10th Grade Curriculum Kit<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I was able to buy my set at a discount in exchange for this honest review. But the opinions expressed are entirely my own (with just a little input from my kids, who tell me that some of the knots they’re learning are more useful “in real life” than others).<\/p>\n
