50 Riddles for Children (And Adults)

I love riddles!  I am not always good them, but I love to try and think outside the box when answering them.  They also make a wonderful way to pass the time when you are on a long car journey, waiting at an airport, or just over dinner.  I have made an easy downloadable version of 50 riddles for children (and adults) which you can find here.

Make sure you follow my brain teaser board on Pinterest for more ideas.  Don’t forget to save the pin for later.
