Does anyone fancy writing some riddles / clues for an Easter egg hunt?

Yes I’m asking other people to put in effort for me for free but it could be fun?

I need five clues or riddles that lead to the following locations

1 the playground
2 the meadow
3 the bridge
4 the beehives
5 the pond

I’d be ever so grateful and send virtual eggs to anyone who can help :)

Where can you find…

  • The first of Sugar plus what you need to fly…
  • The third of Easter - when you didn’t tell the truth!

Meadow
My first is in Morning but not in night
My second in evening but not bright
open the alphabet to find my third
Dont Dive Down too far for the next in the word
The fruit and the colour will give you the next
now get the last one before you are vexed.

oh man, I hate riddles. I'd suck at most of these. I hope chocolate isn't rationed out by riddle solving talent. I still have no idea how to solve the first of sugar one. is that to do with Sugar Plum fairies, but this is an Easter game not Christmas, right?

May I suggest some easy ones?

What did the Billy Goats Gruff cross?

Where were the Goats trying to get to?

Come to me if you want to find Flowers and butterflies. What am I?

I'm a place where you can go back and forth, up and down, round and round. What am I?

We worked so hard,
and not even for money.
Don't be afraid of us, and
please don't take all our honey.

I'm not getting the sugar and Easter one, can someone explain pretty please Grin

WoodenFloorboards · 06/04/2023 15:57

Busy little workers, where have you been?
Back to our wooden house to visit our Queen.

My first is in lamb but not in sheep
My second is in snoring but not in sleep
My third is in night but not in day
My fourth is in grass but not in hay
My fifth is in hello but not goodbye
My last is in what but not in why
My whole is a card game, or part of a song
If you fall in the water you know it's gone wrong

Ignore that second one. I forgot what word I was clueing and went off at a wild tangent half way through!

Second attempt, because I refuse to be beaten by menopausal idiocy.

Impressed at the ingenuity of MNers. Adds a whole new dimension to that oft-used phrase hive mind Grin.

OhCobblers · 06/04/2023 18:59
