I love reading comments from customers! They encourage me as I refine and update older products and create new ones. I especially love when customers leave comments that suggest great new ideas for using a resource.
Whether you already have 120 Riddles for the Hundred Chart or are considering buying this set, I thought it would be fun to share a few of your great ideas for using it.
