Bed Riddles

June 30, 2016 By Stephen Pepper

Our series of riddles for kids about household items is continuing today with five where the answer is a bed. These are therefore great for using with all of our other furniture and bedroom riddles.

The first four of these rhyme, with the word ‘bed’ completing the rhyme of the fourth one.

The fifth of these is a What Am I riddle. To use that one, read the first line to your kids and ask them to guess the answer. As the clue is that it’s something that has a base but which isn’t a baseball field, they might guess that it’s the military, a cheesecake or a mountain.

If they don’t guess that a bed is the answer, read them the clue on the second line and ask them to take another guess. Keep going until they either guess that the correct answer is a bed or they run out of clues.

Bed Riddles For Kids

This is something with a base
That’s often called a box spring
It’s a piece of furniture
A room’s named after this thing

~

Although I’m not royalty
I am often a queen or king
When it gets dark every night
It’s on me people are sleeping

~

This is a piece of furniture
There’s a room named after this
It’s something that’s used every night
Because it has a mattress

~

The answer to this riddle
Is somewhere that you lay your head
The answer’s not a pillow
But what it sits on – it’s a _ _ _

~

What Am I?

I have a base but I’m not a baseball field
I have sheets but I’m not a binder
I’m sometimes a king but I don’t have a crown
I’m used every night but I’m not a light
I have a room named after me but I’m not a bath

Pillow Riddles

June 28, 2016 By Stephen Pepper

We’re continuing our series of household item riddles today with four where the answer is a pillow. These are therefore also perfect for using with our other bedroom riddles.

The first three of these are rhyming riddles, with the word ‘pillow’ completing the rhyme of the third one, while the fourth asks your kids What Am I?

To use that fourth idea, read the clue that’s on the first line to your children and have them take a guess at the answer. As the clue is that it’s something that’s soft but which isn’t a kitten, they might guess that it’s a cotton ball, a marshmallow or a bunny.

If they don’t guess that a pillow is the answer, read them the second clue and have them take another guess now that they have extra information. Keep doing this until they either guess that the answer is a pillow or they run out of clues.

Pillow Riddles For Kids

This is something that is soft
Which you can find inside your home
It is where you lay your head
And contains feathers, down or foam

~

I’m something in your bedroom
You can find inside a case
I’m used by you every night
As it’s where you rest your face

~

When it is late at night
And off to bed you go
The place you lay your head
That’s soft is a _ _ _ _ _ _

~

What Am I?

I’m soft but I’m not a kitten
I’m usually rectangular but I’m not a loaf of bread
I have a case but I’m not a detective
I sometimes have feathers but I’m not a bird
I’m found beneath a head but I’m not a scarf

Bedroom Riddles

June 23, 2016 By Stephen Pepper

Our series of riddles for kids about things that can be found around the house continues today with five where the answer is a bedroom. These are therefore ideal for using with all of our other room riddles.

The first four of these are rhyming riddles, with the word ‘bedroom’ completing the rhyme of the fourth riddle.

The fifth of these asks your children What Am I? To use that one, read the first line to your children and have them guess the answer. As the clue is that it’s something that’s used at night but which isn’t a flashlight, they might guess that it’s a pillow, earplugs or a toothbrush.

If they don’t guess that a bedroom is the answer, read them the clue on the second line and have them take another guess now that they have additional information. Keep doing this until they either guess that the answer is a bedroom or they run out of clues.

Bedroom Riddles For Kids

This is somewhere in the house
Where most of your clothes you keep
You go in here every night
When it’s time to go to sleep

~

I’m an area of the house
Which is where every night you go
As it is where you go to sleep
And rest your head on a pillow

~

Every house has at least one
Of that you can be quite certain
Because it is where you sleep
It often has a dark curtain

~

You spend hours in this every day
But it isn’t a school classroom
Instead it is where you go to sleep
Which means that it is your _ _ _ _ _ _ _

~

What Am I?

I’m used most at night but I’m not a flashlight
I contain sheets but I’m not a binder
I have a door but I’m not a closet
I have a bed but I’m not a garden
I’m an area of the house but I’m not a kitchen

Closet Riddles

June 21, 2016 By Stephen Pepper

For the last month, we’ve been publishing a series of household item riddles. We’re continuing that series today and moving from the kitchen to the bedroom with a set of riddles where the answer is a closet.

The first four of these are rhyming riddles, with the word ‘closet’ completing the rhyme of fourth.

The fifth of these is a What Am I riddle. To use that one, read the first line of it to your kids and ask them to guess what they think the answer might be.

As the clue is that it’s something which has a door but which isn’t a car, they might try guessing that it’s a cupboard, a room or an airplane.

If they don’t guess that a closet is the answer, read them the clue on the second line and ask them to take another guess. Keep going until they either guess that the answer is a closet or they run out of clues.

This is where items can be stored
So your bedroom’s not a mess
It’s also where things get hung up
Like shirts, jackets or a dress

~

I am something in your house
Although I am not a cup
I am found in your bedroom
I’m where your clothes get hung up

~

This can be found in your house
But it’s not a breakfast tray
It’s where clothes and other things
Can be neatly stored away

~

This is something that’s in your house
It’s where your clothes you might deposit
It’s good for storing other things
It’s in a bedroom – it’s a _ _ _ _ _ _

~

What Am I?

I have a door but I’m not a car
I have things hanging inside me but I’m not a gallery
I store things but I’m not a shed
I’m in your house but I’m not a bathroom
I contain clothes but I’m not a washing machine
