Pig Riddles

June 23, 2015 By Stephen Pepper

We’re continuing our series of animal riddles for kids today with five that all have ‘pig’ as the answer.

In addition to the animal theme, these ideas also match well with our farm, nature and food riddles.

The first four of these are rhyming riddles, with the fifth asking your children “What Am I?”

To use the last riddle, read the first clue to your kids and get them to take a guess at what they think is being described.

If they’re incorrect, read them the second line and have them guess again. Keep going until they guess correctly that you’re describing a pig or until they run out of clues.

5 Pig Riddles For Kids

Pig Riddles For Kids

This provides meat that you would eat
When breakfast you are makin’
A chicken is what gives the eggs
And this is what gives bacon

~

This is a farm animal
I’m not talking about a cow
It’s the one that gives us pork
And the female is a sow

~

This is a type of animal
Which has a curly tail
A female is called a sow
And a boar is the male

~

This animal gives us meat
On which you sometimes dine
It gives us tasty bacon
And it’s sometimes known as swine

~

What Am I?

I live on a farm but I’m not a horse
I help provide what you might eat at breakfast but I’m not a chicken
I provide meat but I’m not a cow
I have a snout but I’m not an anteater
I’m found in a pen but I’m not ink

Cow Riddles

June 18, 2015 By Stephen Pepper

We’re continuing our series of animal riddles today with a few where cow is the answer.

In addition to the animal theme, these also group together well with our other riddles for kids with a farm, food and nature theme.

The first three of these rhyme, while the fourth is a What Am I? riddle. With that final idea, read the first line to your kids and get them to guess what they think the answer is.

If they’re incorrect, read them the second clue and get them to guess again. Keep going until they either guess that the answer is a cow or they run out of clues.

Cow Riddles For Kids

You might find these in a field
If they have horns I’d be wary
The females produce white stuff
That gets classified as dairy

~

They live in a field
Milk is what they make
They help give us leather
And a juicy steak

~

They sometimes wear a bell
But never a rattle
A group’s known as a herd
Or sometimes as cattle

~

What Am I?

I sometimes have a bell but I’m not a bicycle
I have four legs but I’m not a dog
I have calves but I’m not referring to my legs
I’m found on a farm but I’m not a pig
I provide milk but I’m not a coconut

If you go on safari
This creature’s hard to ignore
Because he is the king there
And he has a mighty roar

And we know this because
He has a courage medal
From the Wizard Of Oz

I mostly live in Africa
I spend most of my day sleeping
I usually have a long mane
And I’m known as the jungle’s king

~

There was one who was called Simba
And there’s Aslan in Narnia
The one in Born Free’s called Elsa
And in Oz this beast showed fear

I am an animal that’s mighty
Scavenging is how I tend to dine
And if you look at your horoscope
I represent the Leo star sign

I am known as a king
The jungle’s where I reign
It is hard to tame me
And I have a large mane

~

I represent a star sign but I’m not a bull
I like to sleep during the day but I’m not a bat
I’m found in Africa and Asia but I’m not an elephant
I was a character in The Wizard Of Oz but I’m not a scarecrow
I’m the king of the jungle but I don’t have a crown

Its breast and its legs
Plus when it’s alive
You can eat its eggs

If someone thinks that you’re afraid
This is something that you might eat
As well as its eggs that it laid

Breaded, roasted, boiled or fried
And why did it cross the road?
To get to the other side

And it’ll smell fishy
