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: Not a bird but I can fly through time; Hands moving, moments chime. What am I?
Answer: A clock.  "Not a bird but I can fly through time": This is a metaphorical use of "fly". A clock doesn't physically move through the air, but the passage of time is often described as "flying" (as in the saying, "time flies").  "Hands moving, moments chime": A clock typically has "hands" that move to indicate the time, and some clocks "chime" to mark the hour or specific intervals. The riddle uses personification and metaphor to describe a clock's function in a creative way.
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: A leathery snake, With a stinging bite, I'll stay coiled up, Unless I must fight. What am I?
Answer: The answer is “a whip.” Multiple riddle collections list the solution as a whip for this exact clue set.  Leathery snake: A whip is often made of leather and long, flexible, and sinuous—like a snake. Stinging bite: The crack of a whip delivers a sharp, stinging strike. Coiled up: Whips are commonly stored coiled. Unless I must fight: It stays coiled until it’s needed, then uncoils for use (historically in control, sport, or combat).
