As parents, the biggest riddle we face is always, “Am I doing this parenting thing right?” Well, Riddleland is here to answer that question for you, and the answer is a resounding, “We have no idea because we’re parents, too.”

You see, we’re of the mindset that there is no such thing as perfect; and thus, there is no “right” way to parent your kids — especially when you’re doing your best and working for your family. Because we know that sometimes, doing the right thing for your family means working extra hours or having a side-hustle to provide for them. Sometimes, that means fixing “uh-ohs” while you stay home to raise them. Sometimes, that means putting your own needs on hold to take care of theirs. And sometimes, that means pausing to read a favorite book together and laugh-snorting so hard that you tinkle a little.

Riddleland believes that families are the most important thing in this world, and everything we do is for them. That’s why we take extra care when creating innovative, fun, and age-appropriate concepts that help your kiddos think critically, enjoy reading, and simply be their wonderful selves. That’s why we go above and beyond to support families by having gobs of actually-useful resources for kids, parents, and educators. And — most importantly — that’s why we donate to support children and families in the U.S. and abroad, who don’t have much access to fun and educational books, and why we hire fellow, working-parents to help create our hilarious jokes, hand-drawn illustrations, mind-blowing trivia, and absurd would-you-rather questions that we double-dog dare you to read without laughing.

Pack up the kids (okay, not literally) and take a mental vacay to Riddleland to laugh, learn, and live in the moment.

If you have suggestions for us or want to work with us, shoot us an email at riddleland@riddlelandforkids.com

I’m an elementary school librarian and love these quick little articles to assist with teaching source credibility, fake news, summarizing, main idea…the kids love the interesting stories and they illicit great conversation.

This book is a great history book on things we see and do everyday . . . like yelling Geronimo while jumping, or eating a Wendy's Hamburger shop. Somethings you might not know already, and somethings you might know already, but for the new reader, this is a great book into history. Great to read to your little kids, since you'll be surprised about some of the stories too!

Fun way to learn together with my son

I got this for my son but he doesn't want to read it if I'm not reading it with him so we do read this book before bedtime and it is interesting to learn these things together. I also checked other resources and the stories are really factual.

Very good book. I learned a lot. I work with kids on a regular basis and I plan to use some of these stories as a time filler as needed.

I just love learning odd facts and outlandish trivia. This book has given me great fodder, not only for enriching lessons for my students, but also for conversational anecdotes! Amusing and enjoyable read.

Fantastic quality entertaining book for kids and the family!

A beautifully put together book. It is larger than typical sized books. It contains 50 really entertaining stories, which include all sorts from a man being swallowed by a whale and rescued alive! An alien abduction; the highest library fine etc. Nicely presented, excellent pictures. The 10yr old child I gave the book too, really enjoyed reading it! Thank you.
