Parent & Teacher Guide

Everything you need to know about IQ tests for children

Welcome, Parents and Educators!

Our IQ tests are designed to be a fun and engaging way to informally assess children's cognitive abilities. This guide will help you understand how IQ tests work, what the results might suggest, and how to support your child's learning journey.

Online IQ tests provide a general indication of cognitive abilities in a stress-free, game-like environment. They are not intended to replace professional psychological assessment.

How Our Tests Work

1. Age-Appropriate Questions

Puzzles designed for children ages 4-18.

2. Visual-Based Testing

3. Adaptive Difficulty

Questions of varying difficulty to keep kids engaged.

Remember: IQ scores are just one measure of intelligence. Every child has unique strengths and abilities that may not be captured by a single test. Focus on your child's growth and learning journey rather than comparing scores.

Tips for Test Day

Create a Comfortable Environment

Ensure your child is well-rested and in a quiet, distraction-free space.

Keep It Light and Fun

Present it as a fun game rather than a test. Avoid creating pressure or stress.

Encourage Effort, Not Perfection

Praise your child for trying their best, regardless of the results.

Take Breaks if Needed

Our tests allow pausing and resuming. If your child seems tired, take a break.

How to Use the Results

Identify Strengths

Look at category performance to identify areas where your child excels. These strengths can guide educational activities and hobby choices.

Support Growth Areas

Areas with lower scores indicate opportunities for growth. Use fun, age-appropriate activities to strengthen these skills.

Track Progress

Retake tests periodically (we recommend every 6 months) to track cognitive development over time.

Share with Educators

Results can provide helpful insights for teachers to tailor learning approaches to your child's cognitive profile.
