Sara's 1st Logic Problem

In their logic books the girls have recently been introduced to logic (grid) problems. Here is Sara's original - no parental input at all! I am having her type it as well-- I will have her do her own editing.

There were three friends, they each need coats. So they went to the store to get coats. They each got two coats. Each friend had two colors;red and orange blue and green and pink and yellow
The three girls were named:Lolly Becky and Betsy. There was two ten- year-olds,and a six-year-old.Find out who got red and orange, pink and yellow, and blue and green, and how old they were.

Clues:
  1. Becky didn't get blue and green.
  2. The six-year-old wasn't named Becky.
  3. Lolly didn't get blue and green.
  4. Betsy wasn't Lolly's twin.
  5. Lolly wasn't ten.
  6. Becky got red and orange.
Have a logically good time,
Verity and Sara
