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 can press without fingers, pull juice from fruit, or show you love with a short embrace. What am I?
Answer: Squeeze.
It’s a wordplay on the different meanings of “squeeze.” “Press without fingers” points to applying pressure in general (like squeezing a stress ball or a trigger). “Pull juice from fruit” is literal—squeezing an orange or lemon. “Show you love with a short embrace” nods to a quick affectionate hug often called “a squeeze.” All three clues converge on the action and noun “squeeze.”
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.”
