FIRST SOME BACKGROUND: The magic squares have been known since antiquity to have the uncanny ability to organize the first 9 or 16 (and beyond) counting numbers in such a beautiful coordination that many astounding math harmonies result. Youths are charmed by them to some extent from a numerical point of view but the addition of more approaches for more intelligences like the VISUAL/SPATIAL, the LINGUISTIC and the INTERPERSONAL, and even the MUSICAL, make them irresistibly fascinating and mysterious.
