River Crossing Test
The test is to get all 8 people safely across the river. This is a test of logic.
Rules for the River Crossing
- Only 2 people on the raft at a time.
- The father can not stay with any of the daughters, unless the mother is also present.
- The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father’s presence
- The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the Policeman is not also there.
- Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.
This is the result you are aiming for.
