1rst Type: A few grades ago, my math teacher would read puzzles from a book. They were the kind that got your mind thinking and didn’t make sense until you knew the answer..

ex: A man threw a plate on the cement but it did not break.. why?
answer: because the plate was plastic.

2nd type of puzzle: The other type is one that is usually drawn. They are puzzles that use words to make up a picture to a phrase.

ex:

fathers
fathers
fathers
fathers

answer: the four fathers.

if you happen to know what type of puzzles these are called, or what websites to find them on, please let me know.
Yeahh! Those things.
Thanks, everyone..

Any specific websites?

brain teasers

(they’re kind of like trick questions)
