In this week’s episode, the Explorers Troop 301 take a backseat as Paige takes centerstage. We find out what’s been happening to Paige as she’s been held prisoner by King Huxley, and it will likely surprise no one that she’s taking matters into her own hands. But when she comes across another inhabitant of the castle, will it be a friend or foe? This is by far the most difficult puzzle we’ve had in the show’s run. The solution is an anagram of “SEEK THICKET RIM.” The key is really in the -ICK sound. That might help crack it. If your child is too young to read, or just beginning, you can also talk about anagrams in terms of sounds. That may not help solve this puzzle, but it may help with understanding anagrams and how words fit together. One more clue, in white text. Highlight if you want to see it: It’s three words, the second word is “three.” And after playing around with the letters for a while, you can always use an internet anagram solver (it’s not cheating if you’ve given it an honest try).
