About the Problem Solving & Reasoning Maths Activity Book for Ages 6-7 (Year 2)

If your Year 2 child finds word problems tricky or hesitates when maths questions need more than one step, this Problem Solving & Reasoning Maths Activity Book for Ages 6-7 (Year 2) from CGP gives them exactly the practice they need. It builds the logical thinking and reasoning skills that underpin every National Curriculum maths topic, so your child learns not just how to calculate, but when and why to choose each method—essential groundwork for SATs confidence and beyond.

Children draw lines of symmetry, complete missing shapes in a grid, and create their own symmetrical patterns using shapes
Children draw lines of symmetry, complete missing shapes in a grid, and create their own symmetrical patterns using shapes.

Each activity is designed around real-world scenarios—sorting vegetables, spotting patterns, working with sequences—so abstract concepts feel concrete and achievable. Every question encourages your child to explain their reasoning, compare strategies and check their own work, building independence page by page. Clear instructions, colourful illustrations and step-by-step examples mean you can hand the book over and trust your child to work through it at their own pace, whether at the kitchen table or during a quiet weekend morning.

Children fill in missing numbers in a pattern, circle vegetables in the wrong box, and calculate seeds in packets
Children find missing numbers in a plant pot pattern, circle vegetables in the wrong box, and calculate seeds in packets.

By the time your six- or seven-year-old reaches the final page, they will approach unfamiliar maths questions with curiosity instead of worry, spot mistakes before you do, and explain their reasoning in a way that shows genuine understanding. Full answers are included at the back, so you can check progress together without guesswork. Because this is a physical workbook, it ships to your door—no printing, no screen time, just a ready-to-use resource aligned to the English National Curriculum for Year 2.

A page on patterns and sequences with examples and exercises to draw, colour and tick
Children complete patterns by drawing shapes and ticking the correct answer to a sequence.

This book suits any Year 2 pupil who needs to strengthen problem-solving skills alongside their regular maths work, and it fits seamlessly into home-learning routines without adding pressure. CGP's clear layout and friendly tone keep frustration low and motivation high, so even reluctant learners stay engaged from cover to cover.

  • Focused on problem solving and reasoning across all Year 2 maths topics, not just arithmetic
  • Colourful, child-friendly pages with real-world contexts that make abstract ideas stick
  • Encourages independent working through clear instructions and step-by-step examples
  • Full answers included at the back for quick, confident marking at home
