SudoKID is a children’s version of the well-known mathematical puzzle, Sudoku. The concept is simple: the Sudoku you know and love, but with shapes instead of numbers. SudoKID helps children develop problem-solving and logic skills while avoiding the intimidating digits of a "regular" Sudoku board. Plus, SudoKID's 3D shapes provide for safe, fun educational play for kids ages 6 and up.
SudoKID is comprised of:
- A hard plastic game board, with a game card slot.
- 16 3D game pieces in assorted shapes.
- 75 unique game cards, 25 for each difficulty level. Oh, and the Quirky community thought of everything: we’ve coated each game card with patented anti-juice box spill and anti-Goldfish crumb technology (read: laminated).
- A clear board cover that makes it easy to store all the included parts and pieces – handy for trips to Grammy’s.
- Instruction manual.
Be careful, adults, you may get addicted too!

This would be a great game to have in waiting rooms, at schools, great for travel, and just about any other time! Wonderful Idea!

i think that this product is great for schools for children to use in class, a great extra activity once they have completed work quickly

I think someone needs to take this idea to the shelves.

I showed the image of the sample cards (labeled easy, medium, and hard) to my 4-year-old and briefly explained the concept behind the game. She solved the hard puzzle in about 15 seconds. It's got a nice, colorful design but was this concept actually tested on real kids? With only 16 squares to work with, it's far too simple. Now, if it was a 4 x 4 x 4 cube, that would be something! http://s3.amazonaws.com/kore/production/attachments/assets/769/original/1.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=1PBFVY53RWSEGCPEK0G2&Expires=1249587459&Signature=JJL2MZTiily1ouQzD3ch%2FsHnec0%3D

Can you pre-order for shipment to non US addresses? It only gives me a "state" option...

I'd love to commit to my own idea, but looks like quirky only support order from within the US... :(

Just pre ordered 3. Happy to see that this is out! P.S: I think this would fly off the shelves in my local toy store!

Just thought of a tagline that rhymes...The Great Shape Escape. Ah, well.

For me the colors never really hit home. Usually (at least how I remember as a child) A square was blue, circle red, triangle green, and other thing (star? hexagon?) yellow. Not saying it has to be the case, but that's the color I associate with the shapes. Anybody else?

I know it's too late but I just came up with this for a name: Kalei-do-ku John Barrett. UK

This is the kind of thing that the parents will also play once their kids go to bed... Lol

The Raised Shapes piece design is the easiest to work with. They are easy to grip with little fingers, and they all fit in evenly. This stops the pieces from sliding out of place / angle in a car or plane. It also makes it less likely to move the piece by accident. You should put some small neodymium magnets in these (and put a piece a metal underneath the area where you slide the sheets in) so that they can stick to the board, even if the sheet inserted is printed from the internet. These magnets would also keep the pieces in place for transit, shipping and game play. Instead of the pink oval I suggest a pink octagon, purely because it is a shape kids recognize (stop sign) and makes it easier to distinguish between it and the green circle. You could also sell additional pack pieces and board inserts to make the game accommodate different age groups and genders. You might have certain add ons which make it playable with number pieces (older kids) or different shapes (for anyone). You could also give the board a cool theme, or color scheme. You could start this with pink for girls and blue for boys, but you could add interesting designs to make the board more exciting. Hope this helps! -Davis

@Michelle in such an enormous market there's room for everyone. And I quite honestly feel that my idea is original even though it is based on the sudoku game rules.

I am perplexed that so many people here say "what a great idea' yes it was when someone else conceived it and took it to market. This idea is done to death. Are we so short of original ideas that we really need to waste time re-packaging other peoples? I am starting to loose faith. Why not just become a retailer, simply bypass the whole redesign phase and sell existing commercially viable product? Come on! Is it just me that realizes that creating new original and clever products will in time reap rewards far greater than sending a copy product into an over saturated marketplace will. Once this product has to hold it's own in the real world it will be lost in the sea of hundreds of similar products that already exist.

Great idea you guys! This looks like a great idea to get kids interested in math. I would totally play this game considering that I love traditional Sudoku!

yeah... looks like Trevor may have posted the name first, but folks liked the way I typed it I guess... any way to split the influence?
