We’re continuing our series of country riddles today with five that all have Japan as the answer.
The first four of them rhyme, with the fifth asking your kids “What Am I?”
To use the What Am I riddle, read the clue on the first line to your children and have them guess the answer.
There are quite a lot of countries that are made up of several islands, so if they don’t guess that the answer is Japan, read them the second clue and have them guess again.
Keep going until they either guess the right answer or they run out of clues.
