Did you ever have a Rubik's Cube? My children did and tried very hard to solve it. I had so many things to do, I never sat still with it long enough to give it a good shot. It looked impossible to me.
Today, I found directions, a video, to show how to do it. I am still not sure I can do it with explicit directions.
Did you ever solve the Rubik's Cube? Did you ever try to solve it? It gives me a headache just watching the video. I am going to acquire a new skill. I received my first 15 square puzzle when I was a small child and mastered that. This will probably be much harder!
Here is the VIDEO. I found the video HERE. Who would have guessed there would be a Rubik's Cube blog? Not I. Look HERE for the history of the Rubik's Cube.
What's your experience with Rubik's Cube? Thoughts?
Grandsons can do it- a school friend must have seen that video and taught them. It doesn't take them but a few minutes either!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we ever knew anyone who could solve it.
DeleteYes, we had them as teenagers. My step brother could do it pretty easy. I do remember finally getting it one time, but it took me forever.
ReplyDeleteNan,
DeleteMy children were still in elementary school. I don't remember how close they came to solving it.
One of my sons does them all the time. He has various shapes, some with 18 faces per side. I have no desire to learn how though.
ReplyDeleteAnne,
ReplyDeleteThat is impressive. Now that I know it is not just random turning, I do want to learn, or at least try to learn.
