- RiddlesHow many sticks goes to the building of a crow's nest.
None they are all carried.What turns without moving.
Sweet milk turns sour.I ran and I got it I look for it and couldn't get it If I had to get I would have thrown it away. I couldn't get it so I had to keep it.

Because its in the middle of day. Flies high flies low wears shoes and got none.
A footballWhat part of a fish weights most.
ScalesWhat always leaves an inhabited house
SmokeWhat goes up a ladder with its head down.
A nail in a man's shoe.What is full and can hold more.
A pot of potatoesWhat is open when closed and closed when open
Gates on a railway crossing.(continues on next page)- Collector
