For the last few weeks, we’ve been publishing a series of Valentine’s Day riddles that you can use for fun activities with your kids.
We’re continuing that series today with several different riddles where the answer is ‘heart’.
These are therefore also good for using if planning games or activities with a human body or anatomy theme.
The first four of these are rhyming riddles, with the fourth using the word ‘heart’ to complete the rhyme.
The final one is a What Am I? riddle. To use that one, your child should read the first line and take a guess as to what they think the answer is.
If they’re not correct, they should read the second line and guess again. Keep going until they either get the right answer or run out of clues.
