Riddles Around the World

“Riddles Around the World,” made for kids ages 7 to 10, gathers a series of short riddles dressed up as a trip around the planet: figure out which country a flag belongs to from its colors, match an animal to its continent, fill in a round-the-world itinerary using the clues on a postcard, and work out which suitcase belongs to which traveler from what is packed inside. Each riddle fits on one page, with a clear question, a picture to study, and everything a kid needs to answer without any outside help. There is nothing to hide and nowhere to run around: it is a notebook a child can solve alone, with family, or in a friendly challenge, at home or on the road. The difficulty rises gently, from a very simple first clue to the big final riddle that combines every clue to find the city where the trip ends. The answers are gathered at the back, with the reasoning explained step by step so kids understand an answer instead of just being handed it. Since each riddle stands on its own, they can be done in any order and the notebook can be played again and again. A World Traveler passport to fill in is included to celebrate the last riddle solved.
