It's year 6 homework. All words are Christmas related.

WHAT IS NUMBER 5!?

I've been at it for hours I can't work out what the hell it could be. Argh! It's driving me mad

2 tier fear and killing kings

EdithWeston · 18/12/2020 22:23

I thought there were only 9 reindeer as well

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen, and Rudolf

Who have I missed?

This is your child’s homework? Could it be something Christmassy but related to the school, something they’ve done in class, a class name, teacher name?

@Backtoblack1

What is Boswell? 🤣
A riddle which drove MN mad for a while, now widely believed to be a hoax.
Whatagreytdoggo · 18/12/2020 22:24

Oh gosh, this does have Boswell all over it! 😂

I also think the reindeer one is wrong (the question, not the answer - if that makes sense). Which makes me think this one might be wrong as well - but even then, I can't think what it would be if it were right!

Knobbly knees. We all know how christmassy knees are. 😆

OwlinaTree · 18/12/2020 22:25

There's Orla the reindeer too.

SquishSquashSqueeze · 18/12/2020 22:25

I shouldn't have opened this in bed.... Going to be awake all night now!

Hercwasonasnowball · 18/12/2020 22:26

Surely a typo?

Kingdom or kittens?

MichelleScarn · 18/12/2020 22:26

2 t _ from all kleeeeen kanteen?

TerrifiedandWorried · 18/12/2020 22:26

Oh good god. How fucking annoying.

AaronPurr · 18/12/2020 22:26

@Em308

Aren't there only 9 reindeer??
Eeek you're right 😂 I can't think of anything else that would fit 10 R, so I just jumped to reindeer. If 10 reindeer is incorrect then I guess it's definitely possible for number 5 to be wrong as well.
SquishSquashSqueeze · 18/12/2020 22:27

Kitchen Knives?

Pamelaaaaa · 18/12/2020 22:28
