I’m Something You Might Eat But I Also Kill
I’m something you might eat, but I also kill.
I can cause blindness and burns.
Because of me, people lose limbs.
I’ve even been known to crash cars.
And yet I’m considered beautiful
Small children play with me and parents don’t mind.
Some people even live inside of me.
What am I?
Snow. Every kid has taken a bite of snow, but thousands of people die every year in snowstorms. Watch out for photokeratitis, otherwise known as snow blindness. And if you’re exposed to snow for too long, you can lose limbs to frostbite. Just an inch or two of snow makes them treacherous.
A recent snowfall makes the world white, and kids love to build snowmen, snow forts and have snowball fights. Some people live in igloos, built out of snow.
The White Liquid
She awakes. I touch her and she moves her legs. We are both nervous but I continue. Finally the white liquid comes.
What happened?
Milking a cow.
Come For a Ride
I go up, but at the same time go down,
Up toward the sky and down toward the ground,
I’m present tense and past tense too,
Come for a ride, just me and you.
What am I?
A see-saw.
What Boys Use, Girls Like and Parents Hate
Boys use it, girls like it, parents hate it. What is this 5-letter word?
The phone.
A Neck and No Head
What has a neck and no head, two arms but no hands?
A shirt (or sweater, jacket, etc).
Two Faces But Show You One
I have two faces, but show you one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new.
The moon. It has two sides, but on earth we only ever see one side. Man has been on the moon, but no one is there now. A full lunar eclipse is known as a blood moon, and the phrase “once in a blue moon” refers to something that rarely happens. Promising the moon is making an extravagant or impossible promise, and there’s a new moon once every lunar cycle.
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.
