Ah the Puzzler is smiling again 🙂 WOW 41 responses and a number of these multiples, oh and even one from Miss H’s mum, (remember you are encouraged to involve your parents just like Mis H did). Now to the answers……..
I loved Mitch S’s very elegant suggestion for the riddle though it unfortunately wasn’t quite correct. Actually no-one got the answer totally correct but two students got close and the first one to comment was
Cassie
who suggested that it was paper, (the actual answer was a tissue)
As to the pic well there were lots of great suggestions but the winner this week was
Kelly
who made the suggestion that
was an elephant that had fallen in the dolphin pool at Sea World,
what do you think?
Riddle Me 8
Okay so here goes again have a think about what this might be.
I can be thrown from the highest height and never, ever break but throw me in a lake or the sea and I go to pieces, what am I?
OK here’s a further clue to help, (or confuse)
I float in the air but not in the sea
Riddle Me 6
Okay last time’s riddle was a bit of an oldie and a little too well known so here is one that hopefully will be more of a challenge.
Looking at the following list of letters tell me what are the next 2 letters in the sequence. Make sure you also tell us the reason for your suggestion.

Though I weigh nothing at all if you look closely you can see me. If you put me in a bucket of water though I will definitely make it lighter.
Results From Round Two
Well done everyone on some great suggestions for Round Two of our Puzzler, Mr K-T and I had quite a few chuckles when we read through the pic suggestions. There were some excellent suggestions for the riddle too. Unfortunately there can be only one winner and these winners are;
- For the Riddle Me contest the winner is Cassie who said
I think that Eliza drinks tea because the coffee drinkers have 2 E’s in their name. The E’s are within 1 letter of each other (example: ___e_e___). I also think Eliza drinks tea because the tea drinkers only have 1 E in their name.
- For the What’s-the-pic the winner is Doug who suggested it is
“I think it’s a birds eye view of a teacup with two handles. “
Results From Round One
After long and hard discussions Mr KT and I have finally resolved that the winners for the inaugural BPSenpuzzler round are Fraser F for his solution to the riddle
When I am filled up I can help indicate which direction to go but when I am empty,
nothing moves me. A Windsock, (very creative).
(For those interested, the book answer was a glove)
The What’s the Pic suggestion that tickled our fancy the most was Holly Mc’s suggestion of a Teddy Bear’s Leg, nice work Holly. Which suggestions did you like best, leave a ‘Comment’ on this post?
Riddle Me 2
It seems that the Riddle Me puzzle was a bit tricky last time so why not have a go at this one. Remember you can’t really be wrong it’s just some answers are better than others.
Steven, Peter and Helen like to drink coffee but Fred, Claire and Daniel like to drink tea.
Using logic, does Eliza like drinking coffee or tea and why do you think so?
