Word Fun Riddles & Crisscross Puzzles

"Word Fun Riddles & Crisscross Puzzles" is a two books-in-one treasure trove of learning and laughter, created by an Ivy League-educated former teacher. In the first book, kids will delight in solving hilarious riddles—some guaranteed to make them giggle, others sure to earn a groan. The second book challenges them to place each word into a crisscross diagram, sharpening their minds and bringing words to life.

The real magic lies in solving these puzzles with pencil and paper. This hands-on approach boosts learning by engaging fine motor skills, improving focus, and minimizing distractions from digital devices. Writing on paper reinforces memory, builds cognitive connections, and nurtures problem-solving skills in a purposeful way. Unlike apps, which can sometimes lead to passive engagement or overstimulation, physical puzzles encourage deep, meaningful learning.
Most importantly, kids will feel an incredible sense of accomplishment with each puzzle they solve—a reward that lasts far beyond the page!
