Riddle: Willow is a mother of three children-Richard, aged 17, Sasha, aged 15, and Xavier, aged 13. One morning, Willow was about to leave for work when she discovered that her money was stolen. Her husband was away on a business trip, so the thief could only be one of her kids; Willow asked each of them what they had been doing the previous night. Richard said that he was at the club with his friend David. Sasha said that she had a headache, so she took a painkiller and went straight to bed. And Xavier said that he was at his team's baseball practice. Willow immediately knew which child was lying. Who was it?
Answer: Richard is lying. He couldn't be at the club because he's only 17. And before you say, "He could've been at an after-school club", just note that "the club" usually refers to a nightclub; only folks who are 21 or older can get inside. Because Richard is not old enough to get into the club, he couldn't be in there with his friend. Therefore, he must have taken Willow's money.
Riddle: Once, there was a restaurant for foxes. A family of foxes went there. There were two sisters and one brother and of course, the father and mother. They were having lamb stew. After eating, the younger one of the two sisters needed to go to the bathroom. She went with her older sister to the bathroom. After a while, the sisters still didn't come back. The brother was asked to go to the bathroom and get them. It turned out that the younger sister was allergic to lamb and didn't want to make her mother panic. But, how did the brother manage to get into the bathroom to figure this out? It would take a long time to break open the door. And every other way seemed impossible. Or was it? Also, why weren't the sisters in the bathroom that he managed to get in the first time?
Answer: At first, he was in the men's' bathroom. He went into the ladies' bathroom the second time. He slid through the tiny slot underneath the bathroom door using soap.

Riddle: Dawns away, The day's turned grey And I must travel far away. But I'll be back And then we'll track, The light of yet another day. What is it?
Answer: The Sun or a shadow. The riddle is written as if the sun is speaking to us. It's not saying the sun tracks its light; it's saying:
  • “I’ll be back” → the sun will rise again.
  • “And then we’ll track the light”we(humans) will follow, notice, and live by its light through another day.
  the sun leaves (sets), returns (rises), and then together with us it “tracks” the day—meaning we move through the day guided by its light. If you don’t like that reading, a more literal alternative answer that fits the “tracking light” idea nicely is a shadow  
Riddle: One night, a king, a queen, and a princess are taking a walk, but suddenly, the king, the queen, and the princess fall off a cliff. Who is left?
