Of course, parents don’t always want to bother their precious child and come up with the most complicated riddles for him. Nevertheless, such questions, the answer to which you need to think about, are useful and necessary for children and adults, regardless of age.
Why ask your child complex riddles?
Moms and dads may wonder whether it is worth misleading their child and including difficult tasks in the program. However, having studied the information about how productive the most difficult riddles are for children different ages, parents will immediately change their previous opinion. Logic and trick riddles are needed for the following reasons:
These are just some of the factors that indicate that children definitely need difficult questions, to which we need to find answers. This will help you develop fully and be literate.
What should riddles be like?
It's clear that difficult riddles somewhat different from simple logical questions. You should think through a program of developmental classes with such tasks in advance so that the process goes smoothly and without hitches. The most difficult riddles should be:
- With a catch.
- Ambiguous.
- Those that are worth thinking about the answer to.
- Complex riddles should be selected according to the child’s age. This will help boys and girls find answers according to their level of knowledge. It follows that children should not ask very complex riddles; for the little ones it is better to choose trick questions. For older children, you can choose the same questions as for adults.
It is worth considering the above factors when choosing logical questions for your child.

How do you feel about taking a few minutes away from the drab routine and stretching your brain a little? Then choose any interesting logic question from this article and try to find the answer yourself. Just don’t peek into the answers right away - it’s not only dishonest, but also uninteresting!
Mental workout for kids
Many of these mysteries have been well known since Soviet times, but still do not lose their relevance. The answers to them are so simple and obvious that it is almost impossible to guess right away. Are you ready? Then full speed ahead!
1. “Why do you go to the bed when you want to sleep?” The whole “trick” of this question lies precisely in the wording. After all, if you say it out loud, the brain immediately perceives the first two words as one whole. Why? Well, what is this “why”? You can lie down on the bed, cover yourself with a blanket, close your eyes and... And, by the way, the correct answer is “On the floor.”
2. “When can a person be in a room without a head?” Another logic question with an elementary answer. However, to get to the right decision It can be very difficult for a child, because not even every adult can immediately guess that this happens when we stick our head out the window.
3. “Can an ostrich call itself a bird?” You may be surprised, but no special knowledge from the field of zoology is needed in order to correctly answer this question, because even the most educated and erudite ostrich will not be able to call itself anything. If only because he doesn’t know how to speak.
4. “Which words have a hundred consonants?” But here the child will undoubtedly become thoughtful. After all, it’s hard to even imagine such a word - as many as 100 consonants, and what if you add vowels? What kind of lexical monster is this? But the correct answer, as always, lies on the surface - “table”, “groan”, “stop”, “stack”, “stop”.
5. “In front of you is a bathtub filled with water. There is a mug and a spoon on the edge. What should I use to quickly remove all the water from the bath?” Do you think this is a mug? Because she's bigger? But a rational person, looking at your torment, will silently come up and pull out the cork.
6. “Three little pigs were walking through the forest. One walked in front of the two, one walked behind them all, and one walked between the two. How did they go? To be honest, even adults often cannot answer such tricky logic questions. In fact, the piglets in this riddle simply follow each other.
7. “The bull plowed the field all day. How many tracks did he ultimately leave on the arable land? In fact, the bull leaves no traces at all, because the plow he pulls behind him erases them.
8. “At 12 o’clock at night there is a torrential downpour. Could it be that after 72 hours there will be warm, sunny weather?” No probability theory will help you here, relax. But knowing how many hours there are in a day will help - there can be no sunny weather. If only because in the indicated 72 hours it will be midnight again.
So, we looked at some interesting logic questions for children. Now let's move on to other, more complex and interesting tasks.
Other logic puzzles
We bring to your attention others interesting questions on logic, which can make not only kids, but also their parents think.
Play on words
- “On the seashore there was a stone, on the surface of which a word of 8 letters was scratched. When the rich read this word, they began to cry, the poor, on the contrary, rejoiced, and the couples in love broke up. What was that word? We will not comment on the answer in any way, because everything will become clear by itself. And the word was “Temporarily”.
- “Which word contains 3 letters “l” and 3 letters “p”? - “Parallelepiped”.
For math buffs
- “How much earth is in a hole 3 meters in diameter and 5 meters deep?” Still trying to calculate and looking for density different types soils? Don't forget that this is a logic question. By the very fact of its existence, the pit is empty, otherwise it would not be a pit.
- “How many times can you subtract 6 from 30?” Yes, not to divide, but to take away! Just one, because next time you will subtract 6 not from 30, but from 24.
Life
- “Two friends were walking around the city and suddenly stopped and started arguing. One began to assert that “it’s red.” Another objected to him and said that “it’s black.” The first one was not taken aback and asked: “Why is it white in that case?”, to which he heard: “Yes, because it’s green.” What were they talking about?" The correct answer to this riddle is currants.
- “Three centuries ago, this procedure was carried out at a distance of 50 meters. Now this distance has been reduced by 10 times, and all thanks to the invention of a Soviet scientist, which you have probably seen more than once. What is this?" Nothing comes to mind? In fact, we are talking about an eye test chart, also known as
American scientists, who came across this picture and the questions for it, considered it to be one of the most effective IQ tests in the history of mankind. Look carefully at the image, and then try to give the correct answer to just 9 questions.
Questions
- How many tourists stayed at this camp?
- How long ago did they come here: today or a few days ago?
- How far is the camp from the nearest populated area?
- How did the tourists get here?
- What time of day is it now?
- Where does the wind blow from: from the south or from the north?
- Where did Shura go?
- Name the person who was on duty yesterday.
- What date is it now and what month?
Right answers
Are you scratching your head? Well, it's time to show your cards and demonstrate how elementary the answers are to even the most difficult questions for logic:
- Four. To understand this, just look at the list of duty officers (there are four lines on it), as well as the number of plates and spoons on the mat.
- Not today, because between the tree and the tent a nimble spider managed to weave a web.
- It’s unlikely, because the guys were able to bring with them live chicken(or she ran into them by chance, which, however, does not change the essence).
- On the boat. Near the tree you can see a pair of oars, and since the cars are in Soviet time there wasn't much, this is the most logical answer.
- It’s morning, because the shadow falls to the west, and therefore the sun shines from the east.
- This logic question really requires some additional knowledge. For example, you need to remember that on the south side of the tree the branches are always longer than on the north. Next you need to look at the fire - it tilts slightly towards the north, which means the wind is blowing from the south.
- Shura went to catch butterflies - from behind the bushes you can see a net falling on a winged beauty.
- As you can see, Shura went to get butterflies, and the boy sitting next to the backpack with the letter “K” is Kolya. That is, two options are no longer available. Another boy is busy taking photographs surrounding nature. He also cannot be on duty. But what is his name? Taking a closer look, you can see that in the backpack with the letter “B” there is a tripod - an indispensable attribute for a photographer. We conclude that the photographer’s name begins with the same letter - which means Vasya takes photographs. By the method of elimination we find out that Petya is on duty today, and from here we come to the conclusion that Kolya was on duty yesterday.
- The answer to this question is closely related to the previous one. So, Petya is on duty today. Next to his name on the board is written the number 8 - the 8th number. As for the month, the very situation in the picture suggests that it happens in August - only then do watermelons appear in our latitudes. Of course, they are also available in September. But it can be quite difficult to find butterflies at the beginning of autumn, and the first fallen leaves appear on the ground.
Interesting? Did you know that only 6% of people can answer all 9 questions correctly? If you succeeded, congratulations, because this means that your IQ is 130 or more.
