Riddles and Mind Puzzles

Mind puzzles often include riddles. Sometimes you see brainteaser puzzles, logic games, and riddles and so on. Some of the puzzles entertain the mind for a length of time, while others you can pass over quickly. The puzzles gear you up to solve problems, while helping to improve memory.

How riddles and mind puzzles work:
Some of the popular puzzles are the word search. These are intended to enforce thinking, problem solving and to help you look between the lines to explore possibilities. The word puzzles are something as follow:

You have a list of words to find in the puzzles:

Bird – Blue Jay – Red Jay – Cardinal – mocking bird – Parrot – Bellbirds – Osprey – Owl – Bowerbirds – bee-eaters – nightjars – canary –

Now you have some scrambled words to sort through to find each of the birds listed.

As you can see, you have a block of words to sift through and sort out where the list of words is. You can create this word search at home, or buy them at stores. Some of these puzzles are in TV guides, books, crossword puzzles and so on. You want to have some patience when creating word search puzzles such as this one, since I nearly pulled out my hair trying to write this thing for you.

Other type of mind puzzles is easier to create. You can create the riddle puzzles, or word puzzles. Word puzzles help you to build your vocabulary.
Word: National – Television – Media – Cable – Live –

Use these words to create a block of words, building your vocabulary. You can use one word to start building or mix the words together and build a new vocabulary from each word or combined words.
New List: at – lat – ton – lion –

I came up from the first word with this list. You can look at the words backward, forward, sideways, crossways, etc. continue the list so that we have a complete new vocabulary. New list continues: Television: vision – lion – Steve – Levi – lone – TV – noel –
Media: med – ad – mead – I – ID – Demi – Dim – dam – die –
Cable – be – lea – cab – lab –
Live – Vile –

Notice that the last word can only create one word, yet if you expend your vocabulary, exploring you may find that it can turn into another word.

Now join the words together and create new words:
National – Television – Media – Cable – Live

New List: vision – at – it – label – vive – dam – dim – velvet –

You continue creating new words from the joined list. Notice that it is somewhat easier to create new words from a single word, but when you come join the list, it becomes a bit more challenging. Use this as a guide to create the type of puzzles you like, whether it is complex or simple.
