Solving puzzles or challenges always helps the brain recover from all the stress and anxiety. We have to let go (for a bit) of all everyday responsibilities such as washing, picking up the kids, cooking, and everything else that keeps your head working 24/7.
It’s like exercise for the brain, something that helps it stay fit and fresh, which is vital if you want to live a long and happy life!
From time to time, we share, in the Laugh Club, a few small riddles and puzzles – and it is usually appreciated.
With that goal in mind, here is a riddle that has left thousands tearing their hair out in despair.

To test our limitations, challenging the mind and giving those brain cells a workout is actually a win-win. We can both have fun and get some much-needed exercise.
Getting a healthy and pleasurable habit is a rare thing, so solving a few brainteasers is something I think most of us should do a little more often.
It really makes us train the mind – and forces us to bring out the knowledge we got back in school.
Now it may be hard to remember everything from back then – or maybe you are more skilled than ever?

Why? We said, at the beginning of the riddle, that the elderly couple went on a picnic. However, we never said that the sons and their children also went. That information is there to throw you off. Most of you probably sat down and counted – without need.
