This exemplary set of questions focuses on the literary concept of personification. This concept is a figure of speech where human traits are given to living things, objects, and notions that aren't human.
Essentially, these questions have clues and answers that apply human characteristics to things like bikes, televisions, farms, metal, hurricanes and so on.
If you are a teacher, you may use these in class before a lesson about this important literary technique. These are also great to use as examples for children to try and learn how to create personification riddles.
