“Simplicity is the glory of expression.” – Walt Whitman
Today’s puzzle is fun for everyone – Letter Riddles. I came up with these riddles years ago while sitting at a restaurant with my family while waiting for the meal. I was challenging my oldest daughter with these and in return she came up with a couple to challenge me!
The idea is really simple – all of the riddles have answers that are words that are pronounced the same as a single letter or a combination of letters. For example, “What letter did Columbus cross?” – the “C” is the answer because the letter C is pronounced the same as the word “sea“. That’s the idea – not too crazy hard, but still thought provoking.
Below are ten letter riddles for you to try – all of them can be answered with a single letter or a combination of two or three letters.
- 1. What two letters are shifty?
- 2. What two letters does a banana have?
- 3. What two letters are four score?
- 4. What two are sick?
- 5. What two letters play cards?
- 6. What letter is a bird?
- 7. What two letters are slippery?
- 8. What two letters are a report?
- 9. What two letters are not hard?
- 10. What two letters are a girls name?
