Santa loves our Better Tuition advent calendar so much he has created a fun Verbal Reasoning challenge for all those year five students who are busily preparing for Trafford’s Entrance Exams and for anyone who enjoys a good logic puzzle.

Each Christmas Eve, Santa’s elves must prepare the reindeer for the night to come.  Santa is very particular about the order of his reindeer and has left these instructions for the elves.  Can you help them by writing down the correct order?

Here are Santa’s instructions:

Comet behind Rudolph, Prancer and Cupid.
Blitzen behind Cupid and in front of Donder, Vixen and Dancer. Cupid in front of Comet, Blitzen and Vixen.
Donder behind Vixen, Dasher and Prancer. Rudolph behind Prancer and in front of Donder, Dancer and Dasher.
