About Kids Riddles

Kids Riddles is a small, free collection of riddles and brain games, written from scratch and grouped by age so a 5-year-old and a 12-year-old both get riddles that are actually the right difficulty for them. Every riddle is an original composition — nothing here is copied from another riddle site or list — and every answer has been worked through and checked before publishing, because a wrong answer breaks trust fast with kids (and their parents).

Each age band has an on-screen version with a "show answer" button and a printable version with a answer key at the end, so it works equally well for screen time or a no-screens afternoon.
