I start with an E, end with an E,
But I only contain one letter, you see.
What am I?
An envelope
I am a five-letter word,
If you remove the first letter, I am a place.
What am I?
Slate
I have keys but open no locks,
I have space but no room,
You can enter, but you can’t go outside.
A keyboard
I can be long or short,
I can be grown or bought,
I can be painted or left bare.
A nail
I am made of letters, but I am not a word,
I’m something you might use to keep notes heard.
What am I?
A notebook
I have numbers but no math,
I can guide you on your path,
With me, you’ll never be lost.
A map
I am a number, but I’m not quite whole,
I’m found in fractions, that’s my role.
What am I?
A decimal
I can make you laugh, I can make you cry,
With just a few letters, I can say goodbye.
What am I?
A poem
I can be in a box, or on a shelf,
Count me up, but I’m not a self.
What am I?
Books
I can tell you when to rise,
With hands but no eyes,
What am I?
A clock
I am a three-letter word,
When you remove the first, I am a body part.
What am I?
Ear
I start with a T, end with a T,
But I’m filled with tea,
What am I?
A teapot
I’m not a bird, but I can fly,
I can bring you news from the sky.
What am I?
A kite
I’m full of holes, but I hold water,
You’ll find me in the kitchen, not a daughter.
What am I?
A sponge
I can be cracked, made, told, and played,
What am I?
A joke
I go in hard, come out soft,
Am eaten by all, both young and old.
What am I?
Chewing gum
I have teeth but cannot bite,
What am I?
A comb
I am not alive, but I can grow;
I don’t have lungs, but I need air;
What am I?
Fire
I can be long or short,
When I am broken, I am often ignored;
What am I?
A promise
I am light as a feather,
Yet the strongest person can’t hold me for much longer than a minute;
What am I?
Breath
I’m tall when I’m young,
And short when I’m old;
What am I?
A candle
I have a neck but no head,
And wear a cap instead;
What am I?
A bottle
I am taken from a mine,
And shut up in a wooden case,
From which I am never released;
What am I?
Pencil lead
The more you take, the more you leave behind;
What am I?
Footsteps
What has a head, a tail, is brown, and has no legs?
A penny
I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with wind. What am I?
An echo
I can be cracked, made, told, and played. What am I?
A joke
What begins with T, ends with T, and has T in it?
A teapot
What can travel around the world while staying in a corner?
A stamp
What is always in front of you but can’t be seen?
The future
