What is the structure of a logic puzzle?
​The structure of this particular logic puzzle is called an Einstein puzzle. 
An Einstein puzzle is a logic puzzle that involves a scenario with several clues, constraints, and a series of deductions to be made to arrive at a unique solution. The puzzle is named after Albert Einstein, although the origins of these puzzles is unknown and there is no evidence to suggest that Einstein actually created it. These puzzles are perfect for challenging students to use logical reasoning to arrive at a conclusion. 
 
My take on this puzzle presents a scenario involving a 5 elves. Each elf has a name, a favorite color, a favorite toy to make, a special skill and a reindeer they look after. The goal is to use deductive reasoning to find the correct arrangement that satisfies all the provided conditions.
