Each week, they take on fun and spectacular challenges that test their smarts in six categories: Physical, Musical, Social, Linguistic, Logical and Visual. They must prove they have what it takes in every category, or face elimination. It's an entertaining and action-packed competition as young competitors compete for the coveted title with the whole country cheering them on. Along the way Canadians discover that intelligence comes in all shapes and sizes - and doesn't always mean having straight A's.
