Here is an easy way to solve the Rubik's cube!  This video makes up a story to explain each step.  So EASY!!

I didn't originally set out to have so many Rubik's cubes.  One day I was at an educational conference looking to write a grant for Lego Robotics but I found Creativity Cubed instead.  That's making mosaics out of Rubik's cubes. You only have to be able to make a pattern on one-side of the cube for this activity!

The speed cubing happened because we had so many unsolved Rubik's cubes and sometimes it's easier to make a pattern on one side for a mosaic when the cube is solved.

Can you tell what our first mosaic will be?

Solving the Rubik's Cube

Use this set of lessons to learn how to make the daisy, make the white cross, and solve for white and the first layer of your Rubik's cube.

This youtube video is where I learned how to solve a 3 x 3 Rubik's cube.  It isn't the best or fastest method.  It is just one way to learn the algorithms.
