Questions

Can a small child really solve the cube?

Yes. With the layer-by-layer method most children aged 7+ solve it within the one-month course.

Which cube should we buy?

Any good 3x3 speed cube that turns smoothly; the trainer can suggest one.

Does it help in studies?

Cubing improves memory, patience, concentration and hand-eye coordination.

Will my child become a speed cuber?

The course ends with timing practice; speed improves with daily practice after that.
