RIDDLES CROSSWORD
Across
- 5. Feeling cold? Then don’t forget me! Throw me on before you go. I’m nothing special, everyone has me. People wear me when the temperature’s low.
- 6. A full one puts a smile on your face. You keep on going like it’s a race. But as my contents start to diminish, you’ll start to think if you’re ready to finish. What am I?
- 7. Take a gulp to cool yourself down. When it comes to beverages, I wear the crown. Not quite as sweet as soda or juice, but no other drinks could exist without my use.
- 12. On, off, that’s all I do. But my purpose does more for you! Turn me on when it’s dark at night. My brightness beats out candlelight.
- 13. Round and round, that’s the only way for me! I take with me all your laundry. No need to fret, they’re safe with me. I just want to keep them clean.
- 17. Stepping out? Wear me first! I’ll protect your feet from the worst.
- 18. I’m almost like your favorite chair, but my seat’s a little bare. There’s not much there, I will admit. But I’ll keep it clean when you’ve had too much to eat.
- 20. Tall and strong, I stay outside. The sun, the rain, they’re by my side. I give birds homes and help you breathe. I even give you fruit to eat.
- 21. Strong and sturdy, count on me! Just keep me locked, and you’ll see. Tall and solid, all homes have me. To get me open, you’ll need a key (2).
- 22. Here I come and there I go. I move really fast, anywhere I go. That’s why you take me when you’re in a hurry. When I zoom by, I might look blurry.
Down
- 1. Jump inside, the water’s fine! If it’s not, just take your time. Move the knobs and get it right. I make sure you’re clean every day and night.
- 2. Standing quietly against a wall, you rarely notice me though I’m tall. Inside, I keep a lot of treats. Open my door and then you’ll see!
- 3. Soft and plump, I’ll be right here. Throughout your dreams, you’ll keep me near. I’ll keep you comfy all through the night, and you’ll leave me here in the morning light.
- 4. Family, friends, come sit around me. I carry food for you to enjoy. My flat surface, you place your plates. A meal for every girl and boy (2).
- 8. Flat, black, and seemingly boring, I sit in the living room all day. Not until you turn me on do colours flash on my display.
- 9. If it’s work or if it’s play, my features will fill up your day. No, I’m not a book or board game, but I will work just the same. So have a seat and light my screen. I’ll show you exactly what I mean.
- 10. From dirt, to paint, and everything in between, I’m your number on companion in keeping clean.
- 11. Hop on, let’s go, don’t make me beg. My wheels are fast, but use your legs!
- 14. Step and step and step, you go. To reach the top, you will start low. With ever step, the goal you’ll reach. Although the journey might make it hard to breathe.
- 15. With four strong legs, I stand with pride. But please, don’t hesitate to take a ride. Though I love to stand all day, I was made for your rump to stay.
- 16. Keep me open, keep me closed. There’s really nothing I oppose. But when it rains, or when it’s cold, to keep me shut is what you’re told.
- 19. It’s been a long day, it’s time to rest. You can lie down on my chest. Soft yet sturdy, I’ll cradle you. And in the morning, feel life anew.
