Riddle:
I am sweet and cold with a stick to hold; a treat on a hot day, worth more than gold. What am I?
Answer: Ice Cream.
Here's a breakdown of the clues: "I am sweet and cold": This directly describes the primary qualities of ice cream.
"with a stick to hold": This specifies a common way ice cream is served as a convenient handheld treat, often with a wooden stick.
"a treat on a hot day, worth more than gold": This highlights the refreshing and highly desirable nature of ice cream when the weather is hot.
Riddle:
I am between things; in teeth, in time, in fences; I can be wide or tiny. What am I?
Answer: Gap.
It’s pointing to “gap” because a gap is the space between things.
In teeth: a diastema is the gap between teeth. In time: a time gap is the interval between events.
In fences: gaps are openings between slats or posts. “Wide or tiny” fits because gaps can vary in size.
So the riddle lists places where “a space between” shows up, and “gap” is the common thread.
Riddle:
I act like a lamp, but I have the sound of a bee. What am I?
Answer: Bright.
It’s a wordplay riddle. A lamp is “bright,” and the “sound of a bee” is the letter “B.” Put them together: B + right → “bright.”
Riddle:
I hold countless voices that never speak, countless journeys that never move, and ask for quiet to share them all. What am I?
Answer: Library.
"I hold countless voices that never speak": This refers to the vast number of books in a library. Each book contains the "voice" (ideas, stories, knowledge) of its author, but the physical book itself is silent.
"countless journeys that never move": Books describe "journeys" (adventures, travelogues, fictional quests), but the books remain stationary on the shelves. The reader takes the journey through their imagination.
"and ask for quiet to share them all": Libraries traditionally require a quiet atmosphere so that patrons can read, study, and focus on the material within the books without distraction.
