There are times when we are unable to give our kids as much attention as we would like because of our busy schedules and other responsibilities. But it is the little things we do with them every day that really make a difference in the relationship and help us communicate better as a family. As a result, it’s crucial that we schedule events that will give us a chance to spend some pleasant time together. Riddles are a foolproof tactic, not to mention a great game that has many positive effects on kids.
Evidence suggests that solving riddles is a great way to improve kids’ abstract reasoning, memory, and general intelligence. They become more articulate, problem-solving, and conceptually astute as a result. A study published in the Journal of Child Language found that kids who solve puzzles are more social, learn to read and write earlier, and do better in school overall than kids who either don’t or rarely do these things.
Children can improve their memory with the help of riddles, especially the easier ones that they can tell to their classmates. This is because playing this game engages multiple brain circuits, particularly the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus, which are critical for cognitive and linguistic maturation, concept decoding, and memory consolidation, respectively.
These short and simple but very entertaining riddles will provide you with a one-of-a-kind opportunity to bond with your son while also giving you both a good laugh.
