30 Best Fun Riddles for Kids and Adults

It’s not just adults who enjoy thinking about thought-provoking questions. Riddles are nothing more than language-based brain teasers. By doing them, we exercise our brains in a way that is different from what we normally do.
Riddles are especially helpful to children because they will enhance their problem-solving skills and critical thinking.
Riddles are word puzzles where one player asks a confusing question, and another player attempts to figure out its meaning. The solution to riddles is often found by realizing that one of the words is being used in an unexpected way.
