[Riddles] 5 brain teasers to tackle with wit! Spend time together at home with these perfect time-killing puzzles.

Puns kind of feel similar to riddle-like brain teasers, don’t they? Here’s one: “It’s usually loud, but if you add one letter, it becomes quiet.

What is it?” The answer is ‘siren.’ Add a ‘t’ to the end and it becomes ‘silent,’ right? That rush you get when you solve a clever riddle is unbeatable!
