In this section we have selected for you the best and most interesting riddles for children with answers (2000 in total! children's riddles). And to make it easier to navigate their diversity, we have grouped children's riddles into categories.
Riddles for children. What are their benefits?
Riddles for children are always:
- training their memory;
- the good science of concentration;
- a great opportunity to pacify an active child and make him more diligent;
- unobtrusive switching of attention;
- expansion of vocabulary;
- reason for fun;
- active stimulation of imaginative thinking;
- a fun way to get to know the world around you;
- a great chance to chat with your child for an extra minute, give him your attention, and turn from an always busy parent into a true friend.
The most important thing is to choose the right riddle. If you overestimate a child’s capabilities and choose something that is too complex, it will quickly turn from an interesting pastime into a boring, uninteresting activity for him. As, however, too simple riddles that quickly deprive children of enthusiasm.
The secret of the amazing effect of riddles for children lies in several of its components.
- Firstly, in the form of a children's riddle, which so attracts children, turns learning into a fascinating game, an adventure that forces them to think logically, analyze, develop observation skills, and strive to understand the world. Curiosity is the engine of many discoveries.
- Secondly, in the content of the riddle, which most successfully reflects various aspects of a person’s life and activity, his life, environment, relationships, etc.
- Thirdly, the versatility of riddles: children of all ages can make riddles, and this can be done anywhere (at home, in nature, on the road, at a party, at a party) and at any time. They are always appropriate, especially if selected in accordance with the chosen location and occupation.
When choosing children's riddles, first of all, give preference to those to which the child can not only guess the answer, but also pronounce it.
No more restrictions! Make a wish for any object, animal, fairy-tale character, profession, transport, holiday, number, letter...
Naturally, it is more interesting and easier for a child to find answers among what surrounds him and what he likes, so always try to ask children’s riddles that are relevant at that moment. In the forest, ask riddles about mushrooms, trees, at your grandmother’s in the village - about pets, on the road - about transport, at lunch - about vegetables, fruits, food. It is especially important that the answer be in the field of vision of the little ones, because their logical thinking is still being formed, and therefore needs hints - audio, visual.
Turn any of your child's learning (development) processes into an exciting puzzle game and see how interesting and fun it is to learn together.
Of course, parents don’t always want to bother their precious child and come up with the most complicated riddles for him. Nevertheless, such questions, the answer to which you need to think about, are useful and necessary for children and adults, regardless of age.
Why ask your child complex riddles?
Moms and dads may wonder whether it is worth misleading their child and including difficult tasks in the program. However, having studied the information about how productive the most complex riddles are for children of different ages, parents will immediately change their previous opinion.

What should riddles be like?
It is clear that complex riddles are somewhat different from simple logical questions. You should think through a program of developmental classes with such tasks in advance so that the process goes smoothly and without hitches. The most difficult riddles should be:
- With a catch.
- Ambiguous.
- Those that are worth thinking about the answer to.
- Complex riddles should be selected according to the child’s age. This will help boys and girls find answers according to their level of knowledge. It follows that children should not ask very complex riddles; for the little ones it is better to choose trick questions. For older children, you can choose the same questions as for adults.
It is worth considering the above factors when choosing logical questions for your child.
