Everything around babies is a riddle, everything raises a million questions, and often the answers they hear do not satisfy little researchers. After all, they form their own worldview with their own concepts and definitions. They themselves need to understand, learn something new in their imagination, supplement their vocabulary with new words, and enrich their imagination with images and reach out to everything new themselves, with the help of irresistible power to learn and explore. Riddles for young children are very important because they allow kids to discover the world in interesting images, new words and curious ideas.
Riddles - useful exercises for the mind
The riddles left to us by previous generations carry poetry, traditions, and a cultural element. Riddles are a miniature folklore art that helps to learn many necessary concepts from childhood. It is thanks to riddles that kids learn to think and analyze everything they see, hear and say. These concepts encrypted in words help to expand the knowledge of kids. The experience of teachers over many years proves that new knowledge is perceived and assimilated much more efficiently when accompanied by an active thought process.
Guessing riddles, puzzles and charades becomes a kind of intellectual exercise for kids, mobilizing and training mental potential. To solve riddles, you need to be more observant, follow the life process around, be able to remember what you once saw, compare, measure phenomena and facts, mentally separate, highlighting valuable points, be able to generalize, synthesize what you find. Solving riddles for young children contributes to the development of resourcefulness, improves ingenuity, increases reaction speed and mental activity, develops independent thinking and the habit of deeply and comprehensively comprehending the world.

Riddles about music and musical instruments for children
Riddles about music and musical instruments are quite difficult for children. This is quite normal, especially for those who, apart from school music lessons, have nothing more to do with it. So there is no need to scold the child if suddenly the answer given by him does not even come close to the one indicated under the riddle. On the contrary, support him, tell me, help him figure out where he made a mistake in his judgments, then next time he will not make it and will give the correct answer.
This online section contains the best children's puzzles about music and musical instruments. They are not for toddlers, for older children. Some interesting facts given here will also help them. Perhaps they will serve as an additional incentive to explore the world of music.
- The original name of the saxophone is the mouthpiece ophicleid. It was this phrase that its inventor Adolf Sachs dubbed it. The composer Berlioz (a good friend of Adolf) called this musical instrument a saxophone a couple of years after its appearance. This name is shorter, more logical and simpler, which is why it stuck.
- The classical seven-string guitar in our country is often called gypsy. All over the world, its second name is the "Russian" guitar.
- The modern name for song collections - albums - has its roots in the days of the first records, which were so thick that they could fit only a few minutes of music on one side, which is why entire concerts had to be sold on several records. For better preservation, these records were placed in special albums, somewhat reminiscent of modern photo albums. Times have changed, today you can record several concerts on one carrier at once, but no one began to change the name.
- In Japan and South Korea, there are musical roads with grooves of different depths and different distances from each other. Driving along these grooves at a certain speed, the wheels of the car vibrate, which in the cabin is perceived not as a vibration, but as music, and not chaotic, but a real melody. What are these roads for? In Japan they attract tourists, in South Korea they are one of the best ways to keep drivers awake on particularly long and monotonous highways.
- The literal translation of the name of the instrument "piano" sounds like "loud and quiet."
