This special ice cream machine creates cones with 4 scoops of ice cream. It does so in an ordered way. Here you see, from left to right, the last 3 ice creams that the machine has made. Which ice cream will the machine produce next?

Six children were playing in the yard. One of them threw a ball and broke Mr. Beaver's window. Mr. Beaver only saw the back of the child running away. The child had a red shirt and short dark hair. Who broke the window?

The Beaver children have found a magic roller. The roller replaces a shape in a painting with the next shape shown by the arrows below.

Beatrix is trying to rearrange her shelf. She has two rules: 1. Rectangular items must not be next to each other. 2. Circular items must not be next to rectangular items. Which one of these shelves has followed her rules correctly?

To arrange a dinner party Sara the beaver needs to talk to five friends:

Alicia, Beat, Caroline, David and Emil.

Sara can talk to Emil right away. However, to talk to her other friends, there are a few points to

consider:

1- Before she talks to David, she must first talk to Alicia.

2- Before she talks to Beat, she must first talk to Emil.

3- Before she talks to Caroline, she must first talk to Beat and David.

4- Before she talks to Alicia, she must first talk to Beat and Emil.

A robotic car uses a simple rule to drive through a maze:

Turn right whenever possible.

The picture on the right gives an example of how the robot would

drive through a maze.

Question: In how many of the following mazes will the car reach the red dot if it uses this system? Maze A Maze B Maze C Maze D Choose from: 0 1 2 3 or 4

Help the green robot to exit the maze. The robot will repeat your instructions 4 times. Question: Drag the arrows to form a set of instructions.

Kiki and Wiwi are playing L-Game on a 4x4 board.

They take turns placing L-shaped pieces so that

every piece placed by Kiki is oriented as shown below,

every piece placed by Wiwi is oriented as shown below,

every piece is placed entirely on the board, and

no two pieces overlap.

Pieces cannot be moved after they are placed. A player loses the game when it is their turn but it

is not possible to place a piece according to the rules above.

An example where Kiki goes first is shown below. In this example, Kiki can win the game by

placing a piece in the bottom-right corner.

Question:

Kiki has nine possible first moves. In how many of them is she guaranteed to win no matter how

pieces are placed in following turns?

0 1 2 or 3

Beaver Bert has a long strip of coloured paper for a party.

The strip has three different colours (yellow, red, blue) in a regularly repeating pattern.

Bert's friend, James, has cut out a section of the paper, as shown in the diagram below.

Question:

How many coloured squares does the missing piece of paper have?

31 32 33 or 34

Esther has asked Ivan to cook a special cake made of five ingredients.

She has put labels next to the ingredients in the garden. One ingredient has no label.

The labels tell Ivan in which ingredient must be added next in the sequence.

The garden looks like this:

Combining Card A and Card B, you get Card C:

Jane is playing a computer game.

First the computer secretly chooses colours for five buds. The available colours for each flower

are blue, orange, and pink. Jane has to guess which flower has which colour. She makes her

first five guesses and presses the Blossom button.

The buds, whose colours she guessed correctly, break into flowers. The others remain as buds.

Question:

What colours did the computer choose for the flowers?

A. blue pink blue orange orange

B. pink blue blue blue orange

C. pink blue blue pink orange

D. pink pink blue pink orange

Betaro Beaver has discovered five new magic potions:

one makes ears longer

another makes teeth longer

another makes whiskers curly

another turns the nose white

the last one turns eyes white.

Beavers enjoy playing hurling, a popular game similar to hockey.

After the game ends, the beavers in each of the two teams line up in a row and walk past the

other team. As they pass each other, they shake hands. At the beginning, only the first player

on each team shakes hands. Next, the first two players shake hands (see picture below). This

continues until each player has shaken hands with every player on the other team.

There are 15 players on each team.

Question:

If each player takes one second to shake hands and move to the next player, how many

seconds of shaking hands will there be?

A class in Beaver High School have built a prototype of a robotic arm. The class have decided to test

the arm in the following way.

They place the arm on a table with two balls: one in tray A, and another in tray B. Tray C is empty.

The robot arm follows these steps in order:

1. Pick up the ball in A and put it in C.

2. Pick up the ball in B and put it in A.

3. Pick up the ball in C and put it in B.

Question

When the robot arm is finished, which of the following statements are true?

Beavers Bonnie and Clyde exchange messages consisting of 12 digits with 0’s and 1’s. Because Beaver

Ben understands their messages, they decided to encode them.

In the first encoding step they replace a pair of consecutive digits by a character A, B, C or D:

The Beaver School of Art has created an exhibition using black and white squares called pixels.

The artists paint their pictures using a clever set of instructions.

An example of a picture of the letter “a” is shown below. The first number in each row always relates

to the amount of white pixels at the beginning of the row. If the first pixel is black the row begins with

a zero.The next numbers alternate betwen white and black pixels. For example:

• 2,3,2,1 describes 2 white pixels, followed by 3 black pixels, followed by 2 white pixels, followed by a

black pixel.

• 0,3,4,5 describes 3 black pixels, followed by 4 white pixels, followed by 5 black pixels.

Question

What picture is painted with the following instructions?

The Beavarian Astronomy Society has developed an algorithm for encryption. An encrypted word has

two parts: the first part consists of the numerical value of the word to be encrypted, and the second

part consists of the alphabetical order of each letter in the word. They use the table below for all

encryption operations:

For example, the word “MARS” is encrypted as follows:

• The numerical value of the word is equal to the sum the corresponding values of the letters in the

table (4+1+180+300= 485).

• In the word MARS, if we order all letters alphabetically we have A-M-R-S. The alphabetical order

index is A=1, M=2, R=3, S=4, which gives 2134.

Therefore, the encryption for the word MARS is 485;2134.

Question

If the word SATURN was encrypted using the same algorithm, which of the following would be the

correct encryption?
