| NoWay!Although these two pictures may seem identical, there are actually seven differences between them. When you find a difference, draw a straight line connecting the item in the top picture to its changed counterpart in the bottom picture. (You may want to use a ruler.) Each line you draw will cross out a letter. When you’re done, the leftover letters, in order, will spell the answer to the riddle. |

Downhill RunTo find the answer to the riddle, use the clues to fill in the words in the spaces provided. Each word is split into two halves. One part goes with the word half above it, and the other part goes with the word half below it (except for the first and last halves). The arrow in each clue tells you in which direction your answer should go. When you’re done, read the highlighted letters in order, from top to bottom, to get the answer to the riddle. |

Incredible EdiblesThe eight pictures here show objects made out of foods whose names rhyme with them. For example, a fancy dog made from pasta would be a “noodle poodle.” Can you identify them all? |
