Abstract
chool children. For example, in one of their games a child has to stand up and try to list things that he is not. The other children listen to catch him out when he makes a mistake: the first child to spot a mistake takes over and has to list things that she is not. And so on. We believe that there is a link between games and learning (of logic) that it is time to wake up to. At present, most of the education institutions involved in the teaching of logic encounter difficulties that sometimes grow with the students' age. At the same time, the use of games in teaching decreases with the student's age. To see an example, one can compare Dienes and Golding's book with the teaching material available today at the secondary and undergraduate levels. As far as we know, the use of games in high school and undergraduate courses is not a very common experience. Nevertheless, there is a rich literature and some interesting tools on games as an explanation of concepts
