RIDDLES
Dear youngsters, could you answer the following questions.
1. My first is in window but not in pane. My second’s in road but not in lane. My third is in oval but not in round. My fourth is in hearing but not in sound. My whole is known as a sign of peace. What am I?
2. The more of me there is, the less you see. What am I?
3. I have a name that’s not mine, and no one cares about me in their prime. People cry at my sight, and lie by me all day and night. What am I?
4. Alone I am 24th, with a friend I am 20. Another friend and I am unclean. What am I?
5. By Moon or by Sun, I shall be found. Yet I am undone, if there’s no light around. What am I?
6. I reach for the sky, but clutch to the ground. Sometimes I leave, but I am always around. What am I?
