It is important to do riddles, board games, card games because they activate your brain. You need to think about the riddle to figure out the answer and they are also fun to do when you are bored. Board games are fun to play and many are strategy games, such as chess, checkers, Battleship, and Topple. Card games are fun because they make you think about numbers. My favorite card game is War. I like to play strategy games.
ReplyDeleteMy riddle is: Who got wet? An elephant, a giraffe, a monkey, and a cat were standing under an umbrella.
Come see me if you think you know the answer.

Riddles are fun and exciting because they make you have a laugh...well, sometimes. I think puzzles and all that other stuff are really good because they are fun to do with friends/family and make your brain work. They are also great on trips. I think that riddles are fun to make up in class (which I hope we do). This is mine: What do gophers do when they're hungry???????? GUESS!!!!!:)

Riddles, board games, and card games also teach you stradegy. You have to know what to do next.My riddle is:

I think riddles are fun because they push your thinking forward. Riddles are hard because they are something that you would never think of but it's usually true. They are important because it helps you get a different understanding of what the riddle is about. The best riddle iI know is what gets harder to to catch the more you run?

ReplyDeleteand I will make you cry.

and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champagne bubble.

Can you guess the riddle?
(97% of Harvard graduates can not figure this riddle out, but 84% of kindergarten students were able to figure this out in 6 minutes or less. Can you guess the correct answer?)
Riddles make you push your thinking past your comfort zone. You cant just be a lazy guy and say the obvious, you have to think, "How is this a trick?" Board games and all that are good because most board games involve strategy.

Riddles are a great way to get your brain to think.Most games have riddles.When you are playing a game that has riddles most of the time you don't think it's work or how good it is for your brain.Even VIDEO GAMES have riddles. One why I spend time with my family is we have family game night and a lot of the time the game has riddles and it is fun see people guess the answer.

Riddles make people think more about random experiences. Riddles can be hard or easy to answer. Sometimes riddles get me mad because it is too hard to answer. I am no maven at riddles but here are two of them.

I think riddles are important because it stretches your thinking and is fun to answer. Then if you solve the riddle you feel confident about your self. I is important to play board games like Monopoly. Monopoly is a great game because you have to do math (if you want to buy something). Another reason why it is a good game if you make change, (if you're the banker).
