A real IQ score for a child comes only from a standardised test given by a psychologist. For home practice, this page builds IQ-style reasoning puzzles for ages 5–7, 8–10 or 11–13. Hide the answers, let the child try, then enter how many were right: 8 out of 10 shows as an 80% practice score.
Parents and teachers often want a quick set of IQ-style puzzles for a child: something to try on a rainy afternoon, a warm-up before a school entrance assessment, or a way to see which kinds of reasoning a child finds easy. This generator builds a fresh set every time from four or five puzzle kinds — arithmetic sequences, doubling and tripling sequences, letter patterns, missing addends and odd-one-out sets based on multiples — scaled to the age band you pick. Answers stay hidden until you switch them on, and after the attempt you can enter the number answered correctly to get a percentage. The limit is important: the result is a share of correct answers on random puzzles, not a normed IQ, and it says nothing about verbal, spatial or memory skills.
Choose 5–7, 8–10 or 11–13 years. Older bands add larger steps, odd-one-out sets and growing sequences.
Use the − and + buttons to choose between 1 and 20 puzzles.
Leave Show answers off while the child works, then switch it on to check.
Type how many puzzles were answered correctly to see the practice percentage.
Result First puzzle: What comes next? 19, 21, 23, 25, ?
Age band: 8–10 years
Puzzles: 10
Puzzle kinds used: 4

Four puzzle kinds rotate through the set; eight right out of ten is a practice score of 80%.
Result First puzzle: What comes next? 8, 10, 12, 14, ?

Younger children get counting-on sequences, simple missing numbers and letter patterns, with answers hidden until you switch them on.
next term = a + 4d; practice score = correct ÷ puzzles × 100
adcorrectpuzzlesEach puzzle kind is drawn with random numbers inside limits set by the age band: starting values up to 10, 30 or 60 and steps up to 4, 7 or 13. Sequences show four terms and ask for the fifth. Odd-one-out sets hold three multiples of one number plus one that is not. The kinds rotate in order so a set mixes them evenly.
No. IQ scores come from standardised tests such as the WISC, which compare a child with thousands of others of the same age. This page gives a percentage of puzzles answered correctly, useful only for practice and for spotting which puzzle kinds feel hard.
Number sequences with a fixed step, letter patterns that skip through the alphabet, missing-number additions, odd-one-out sets built from multiples, and for 11–13 year olds, sequences that double or triple each time.
The numbers are drawn at random within the age band's limits, so every set is new. That makes it easy to practise often without the child memorising answers.
Five or six is usually enough for a 5–7 year old in one sitting. Attention drops quickly at that age, and a short set that ends well tends to go better than a long one.
It means 6 of 10, or 9 of 15, puzzles were right. Look at which kinds were missed: a child who solves sequences but not odd-one-out sets may simply not know the multiplication table involved yet.
Yes. Leave Show answers off, use your browser's print command for the question sheet, then switch answers on and print again for the answer key.
