Read A Million Words

Try to work out the following riddle – there’s a prize for the first to work it out.  Come on mums and dads… you too!

What have eight arms,

Can swallow whole farms,

And with a million of them you can make a man?

Write your answers in the comment box and we’ll tell you the answer on Friday!

Some other teasers for you.  We gave the answers to these in assembly but let’s see if mum and dad can work them out.

I am blue, but not sad,

Sweet but not a fudge,

I am always a hundred weight.

What am I?

And the last teaser:

I am eleven, but also one,

I always run together,

I am English but full of Spanish,

What am I?
