Okay, maybe someone here can help us.
My daughter brought home something from school and we haven't been able to figure it out.
Hopefully I can explain this :o ... here goes
It's a grid of 16 squares (4 across-4 down). There are 16 "items" to place in each square. There are 4 of the same item and 4 of the same color. In this case, it's a Thanksgiving theme--turkey, moccasins, hat, cornacopia. 1 blue turkey, 1 yellow turkey, 1 red turkey, 1 green turkey; 4 hats, 1 blue, 1 yellow... well, you see how this goes.
The object is to place the items on the squares so that no horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row has 2 of the same color OR item.
Anyone solve one of these before?
Oh, and my daughter is in 4th grade!! Pathetic we can't figure it out. LOL
