[Intelligence Training] Look at the picture and guess the answer!

[Fun Intelligence Training] Look and Think! Exciting Riddle Quiz (7)!!

I don’t think there’s any clear boundary between play and educational training.

So I believe the difference lies in whether the adult who’s with the child is enjoying it or not! When you enjoy it together, please enjoy it wholeheartedly.

A game where you look at a picture and imagine what it represents seems great for mental exercise, too! For example: “There are ten ‘sa’ characters lined up.

What could this represent?” → The answer is “sugar” (satō), because there are a lot of “sa.” Noticing that ten can be read not only as jū but also as tō becomes a trigger for learning, doesn’t it?

If parents find it difficult to create questions, it’s a good idea to use riddle books or online resources.

Keep presenting new questions to stimulate both parent and child brains together.

[Train Your Thinking] Fun Riddles

FBI logic puzzles are fascinating! #Quiz #MagicalQuiz #BrainTraining #Deduction

If you go to a bookstore or library, you’ll find lots of riddle books for children lined up.

Education-related companies like Gakken are also actively publishing riddle books.

I suppose these books are filled with the hope that they’ll spark something in kids.

Seeing that many quiz champions are also good students makes me wonder if riddles help with studying too.

Let’s try some fun riddles that train your thinking and loosen up your mind.

They’re different from ordinary riddles, so they can be quite tricky.

For example: “What do a turtle, a camel, and a rhinoceros want?” → Answer: “A camera” (in Japanese, combining the words for turtle, camel, and rhino forms a pun that sounds like ‘camera’).

It takes real skill to make good problems, doesn’t it!

Poop riddle

Poop Riddles 4: Easy! Preschool to 1st Grade #Shorts #Riddles #Poop

A few years ago, drill books and workbooks related to poop-themed riddles were all the rage, weren’t they? With materials that use poop as a theme, many people might worry, “Is this really okay?” It seems that children tend to like or be highly interested in things that adults would find embarrassing.

Turning that idea around, using such topics for learning or play can actually motivate kids.

The questions are often unique, so children will probably get excited and solve the riddles with lots of enthusiasm.
