Usually we call the words you get from the littler thinking games Answers, even though they don't really answer any question other than "why are we still doing this?".
One of them had to do with the letters that are like the first letter of In or of Out, not the first letter of Left or of Right. Half of the answers had three of the first letter of Out, no more and no less, and none of the rest. The other half of the answers had none of the first letter of Out. If you pair up the answers by how long they are and look at where one answer has a letter and the other one has the first letter of Out, it tells you to make an animal wear something really weird.
Another one had to do with finding words in some really weird letters that I made up. Each of the answers went with three words: one meant the same thing, one sounded the same at the end, and one was just as long and started and ended with the same letters. If you found all of these words and looked at how far into the letter they were (just like Another is word number one in this and Had is word number three) you could see that the numbers all lined up in a well known way except with one missing. So if you had the numbers one, three, and seven, the five is missing. You looked at the words at the places you were missing and it told you to write your song and dance show in a way that would make your teacher very sad.
Thinking games are like that: you see that some things line up in a way that looks good and you do something with that.
