Question JOyce The Babysitter Trouble!!

This is a mind bender! See if you can figure it out!

Joyce is a popular babysitter. Billy, Bobby, Sam, tommy, and Pete are her charges, and she babysits for each one on a different day of the week. She takes Saturday and Sunday off. As it happens, no two children are the same age and range in age from one to five. the mothers of the boys are Mrs. Clark, Mris. Jolson, Mris. Prescott, Mrs. Foster, and Mrs. Waters. From the clues given, try to determine each child's full name and age as well as the day of the week on which Joyce babysits for him.

1. Thursdays child is the oldest and mrs. Jolson's child is not the youngest.
2. She sits for Mrs. Fosters son earlier in the week than for Pete but later than she sits for the two-year old.
3. She doesn't sit for Billy or Tommy on Monday or Friday but one of them is the one-year old and the other is the three-year old.
4. She sits for Tommy the day before Billy but the day after the Clark Baby.
5. In no particular order the three youngest children are the Monday child, Tuesday Child, and Mrs. Jolson's child.
6. Mrs. Prescotts son Sam is not the oldest nor is he the child watched on Monday.


Well, can you figure it out?

The Circus Boys


These are there names:: Victor, Virgil, Vincent, Vito and Vance
THese are their jobs: Clown, Juggler, Acrobat, Magician, Strong Man


Ok here are the rules:

1. The clown comes on after Victor and Vito but before the Magician.

2. The acrobat comes on 3rd.

3. Neither the strong man nor Vincent is the 1st or the last to perform.

4. Virgil, Victor, and Vito perform in that order.

Have fun!!
