Here’s a set of five riddles for kids where the answer is necklace. These are therefore perfect for using with our other riddles with a jewelry and Valentine’s Day theme.
The first four of them rhyme, while the fifth asks your children What Am I? To use that final idea, read the first line to your kids and ask them to guess what they think the answer should be.
As the clue is that it’s something which gets worn but which isn’t a pair of shoes, they might guess that it’s a T-shirt, a pair of jeans, some socks or one of many other things.
If they don’t guess that necklace is the answer, read them the second clue and ask them to guess again. Keep going until they either get the correct answer or they run out of clues.
