These are super cute, as are the knock knock ones! I teach Art workshops and I almost always read the kids a story too so I can weave these in as comedy relief.
I’m so happy to find these! For the last 2 months, I’ve been sending little riddles in my 2nd grader’s lunch box. She is the snack time entertainment so she’ll be glad to get some Christmas themed riddles. Thanks for sharing them!
