Riddle:
Start at one and add one forever; I grow but never end. What am I?
Answer: Infinity.
It’s the process of counting: start at 1, then keep adding 1—2, 3, 4, and so on—without stopping.
The total “grows” because the number increases, but it “never ends” because there’s no largest number; you can always add one more.
Infinity is not a specific number, but rather a concept representing something without any bound or end, perfectly matching the description in the riddle.
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.
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:
My Grandpa Joe is nearly a hundred years old, and he has been experiencing some memory loss recently. Around breakfast time the other day, he was in the kitchen, and couldn’t find something he was desperately hunting. “Where are those delicious little puffs of goodness your mother always keeps in here?” he asked me. “You know, the ones that sound like they came out of a swamp; you know, those tasty little cylinders made of sugar, water, corn syrup, gelatin, and glucose. How does your mother expect me to have my morning cup of cocoa?” he asked in a frustrated manner. “I am looking for those white things which are often found out in the woods near campfires. Why, there was even a giant one I saw last week when I was watching that original Ghostbusters movie with you,” said Grandpa Joe. With the help of all the clues he had just given me, I was able to locate the items my grandfather had been seeking. Can you tell me what those items were?
Answer: They sound like they come from a Swamp because they are: MARSH MALLOWS.
