HERE’S a fun logic puzzle to get your brains whirring.

Everyone can see the three women arguing over the tots playing in the sand – but only those with a super-high IQ will be able to figure out who is telling the truth in under 10 seconds.

Can you figure out which one of these warring women is telling the truth in under 10 seconds?[/caption]

It’s a pretty strange scenario we are faced with – three women all claiming to be the mother of the two kids in the middle.

To make things more interesting, the boys seem to be identical twins.

This scene is playing out at the beach, so apparently that’s a hot spot for wannabe mums to go scouting for spare kids to claim.

It could be a good opportunity to swipe an unattended kiddo whilst the real mum has slipped for a dip.

But to have two rock up at the same time as the true mother – what are the chances?

Of course, there could be another explanation for this sticky situation.

Perhaps two of the women are hard of sight – macular degeneration is on the rise, after all.

If that’s the case, then we should forgive them for the initial mistake.

Although you would have thought a mother could recognise her tiny twins by their no-doubt incessant noise.

Which leads us back to the original conclusion: two of these women are out to nab a child.

The true mother must be very bemused, and more than a little concerned.

But which one is she?

Could the ginger hair of the woman on the left be a clue?

Would the woman on the right really have bought two ice creams for herself?

Or perhaps the position of the woman in the middle suggest she is warding off rogue interceptions from the sides.

Have you figured it out yet?

If not, don’t worry because here comes a clue.

Try studying the smaller details on all of the characters – particularly those on the skin.
