Dear parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts,
friends and anyone else who are going to help
the little owner of this book to learn Sudoku,

I wanted to tell you that Sudoku is brainstorming puzzle game.

It can help your kid to be patient,
to think in a logical and analytical way, and not to rush.

However, your kid is probably too young to read

and to understand something without further explanations.
It is for that reasons that your guidance and assistance are of the utmost
importance.
1
 This book is indented for helping kids to learn how to solve Sudoku.
If you are new at Sudoku too, do not worry.
You are not left on your own!

Simple, non-demanding video for you and your kid is available at

You Tube channel Kfagic’s books: Puzzle solving video tutorials.
So, let’s get busy and start with some basic rules.

Every Sudoku has only one solution.

There is no guessing.

This book contains 4x4 sudoku puzzles, also called “kids sudoku puzzles”.
They are simpler and easier for the little ones who are just embarking on a
journey called Sudoku.

So, the Sudoku puzzles presented in this book are composed of 16 little
squares combined into 4 middle-sized squares.

These 4 squares make one big square – the Sudoku puzzle.

There are only two rules:

(1) every row and every column must be filled with different letter, and
(2) every middle-sized square must be filled with different letter.

2
 The 4x4 Sudoku grid looks like this:

It is composed of 4 squares:

… and each of them is composed of 4 little squares with different letters

A B
D C

3
The puzzle is solved properly only when every row, every column and
every square have 4 different letters. Something like this:

A B C D
D C B A
B A D C
C D A B

Let us try to solve some basic sudoku puzzle!

We must solve our Sudoku puzzle using letters A, B, C and D.

So, we have to fill the blank spots with proper missing letters.

A C D
B D C
D A B
C B A

As you can see, in the first-row letter B is missing.

In the second row the missing letter is A.
In the third row the missing letter is C.
Finally, in the fourth row the missing letter is D.

4
 So, the solution is:

A C B D
B D A C
D A C B
C B D A

It is important to check if we did it right.

So, let us check if the rows, columns, and squares
are filled with different letters.
They are!

This is an important part of solving Sudoku, meaning that all of Sudoku

rules must be fulfilled.
If those rules are not met, the Sudoku solution is not right.
