Show HN: InstaLogic – online math/programming competition

https://instalogic.org/
2•KwsAti•1h ago
Hi HN,

We’re organizing InstaLogic, a fully online competition to spark curiosity in math, logic, and computing for younger students (ages 7–11). We’ve run it in Poland before (18k+ participants last year); this time it’s open worldwide. We believe it’s one of the largest three-stage competitions of this kind for this age group.

You can try it here: https://instalogic.org

Everything is online and free to join.

We’d be grateful for suggestions on where to share this to reach more students, teachers, and parents.

Also, we’d appreciate feedback on our tasks, both the logic and the wording.

Schedule: * Stage 1 (Oct 1–28, 2025): story-based logic & math puzzles. Join anytime during this window.

* Stage 2 (Dec 6, 2025): beginner-friendly programming.

* Stage 3 (Mar 14, 2026): more challenges and a simple educational assembly language we built for fundamentals.

PS: Teachers and parents are welcome. You can register a class or a single student, or your child; Stage 1 is drop-in friendly (join anytime between Oct 1–28).
