This sixth volume of a set of puzzles, quiz and activities differs from the earlier volumes in the series in that it has been designed for use with a much younger age group. The author has used them with a youth group known as the Rock and sponsored by St. Michael's Church, Budbrooke. The young people who attend this group are in the school years 6-8 age group.

While a good general knowledge is helpful in completing some of the activities, they are designed to be educational rather than challenging. Information sheets and appropriate reference books like atlases are made available to help participants find any information needed.

While straightforward instructions are provided, it is necessary for the activities to be supervised by someone who has worked through an activity and knows what it is about to help any who are struggling to get started. This is important because all the activities are original and will not have been encountered by participants in this form before. Once started, it has been found that those involved can continue independently quite well. Indeed, the activities do not have to be carried out in the context of a social activity but individuals may just enjoy completing them at home for recreation.

Membership of the Rock youth group is not restricted to church members but young people are invited as part of the church outreach to this age range. With many of the activities, a final stage often involves deciphering a phrase, quote or saying. As the socials are sponsored by the church, many of the quotes to be deciphered are Biblical texts. However, anyone choosing to use these ideas could quite easily modify the final stage and use a secular quote rather than a Biblical text to be deciphered.

The pages in this book are free to photocopy. In running one of these activities, it is important to have available pens or pencils, plenty of photocopies of the activity instructions, answer sheets and for some activities, information sheets or one or two appropriate reference books.
