What are the Things?
In one day, 6 things.
In one week, 4 things.
In one month, 2 things.
In one year, 1 thing.
What are the things?
Odd numbers.
In a day, there are 6 odd hours: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 (ignoring 24-hour time).
In a week, there are 4 odd-numbered days: 1, 3, 5, 7
In a month, there are 2 odd weeks: 1, 3 (no month has 5 full weeks)
And in a year’s 12 months, there is 1 odd number: 1 (the 1 of 12).
I readily agree the year one is a stretch, but I didn’t write it :)
Can’t Be Touched, Can Be Felt
It can’t be touched, but can be felt.
It can’t be opened, but can be gone into.
Those who seek it always find it under something,
yet it moves from place to place.
Shade. You can’t touch shade, but you can feel its coolness. You can’t open shade but you can go into it. If you’re looking for shade it always has to be underneath something to block the light and shade moves as the light does.

After the Tenth One
After the tenth one it didn’t matter that he came from an ethnic minority. Who was it?
Moses from the Bible. The Pharaoh wouldn’t release the ill-treated Israelites (an ethnic minority) from slavery until being visited by ten plagues.
I Turn Around Once
I turn around once,
What is out will not get in.
I turn around again.
What is in will not get out.
What am I?
A key.
A Voice With No Mouth
I am a voice without a mouth, throat or lungs. I know no language but speak in all tongues. What am I?
An echo.
Easy To Touch
You have one of me and I’m easy to touch,
I’m hard to look at, but you can in a clutch.
Yet you’re told to watch me, or get your friends’.
I’m often referred to when you make amends.
You can throw me out but not away,
I cause many pain, every day.
What am I?
Your back. You have one and it’s easy to touch but hard to look it. A common phrase is to “watch your back” and it’s common to “have your friend’s back.” When apologizing, you often want to take back what you said. You can throw out your back, but you can’t throw it away. And back pain causes people pain every day.
I Am Pronounced As One Letter But Written As Three
I am pronounced as one letter but written as three,
There are two of me, I am single, I am double,
I can be blue, brown, black or green.
I can be read from right to left or left to right and am still the same.
What am I?
Eye.
