Anyone good with riddles?
 
I need to think of at least 16 riddles/clues for the big kids Easter Egg hunt.
We are doing it outside at my moms. The only free sets of clues are indoor ones. The rest I found you have to pay for. So ... help me out please! LOL

The whole set is pay but here's an idea for 2 of them they give ya

CLUE: I play in it at the beach or in the yard, but there`s no need to build castle

thanks Meg! If it helps, here are some of the kinds of places we have to hide them (don't have to use them all):
hay bales, pool/pool fence, hot tub, tree w/ purple flowers, palm trees (1 tall and 2 smaller) lemon tree, back porch, gazebo, beach (sand area), playhouse pirate ship, 3 different doors (front door, side door, back door). old coke machine, old vintage washing machine, water faucet/hoses, a few different bird houses (firehouse, school house), a large turtle sculpture

This is the kind of thing I do with my nieces and nephews. I hope it's ok I answered.

Hope you can use some of these:

Hay Bales:
I could be breakfast or dinner for a horse.
Right now I hold a clue. For You, of course.

Pool:
It's fun to swim in water that's blue,
No need to jump in to get your next clue.

Hot tub:
I'm warmer than a swimming pool. Too hot, some felt.
Just don't drop a chocolate bunny in me. For sure he would melt.

Tree with purple flowers:
There's a tree in the yard with flowers this hue,
The color of grape jelly beans should give you a clue.

Palm trees:
There are three trees in the yard
that could be on a tropical postcard.
Two of them are sort of small.
Your clue is next to one that is tall.

Lemon tree:
You can solve this riddle. You have the power.
I give you fruit that is yellow and sour.

Back porch:
I'm outside, people can sit on me and I'm attached to the house.
Can you solve this riddle? Be quick. Like a mouse.

Beach (sand area):
You shovel me into your pail and I get between your toes.
Am I hiding a clue for you? Surely, Grandma knows!

Playhouse pirate ship:
Ahoy Matey! It's easy to see
I'm hiding on a vessel that should be out to sea.

Old Coke machine:
Some call it soda. Some call it pop.
To find your next clue make this your next stop.

Old vintage washing machine:
This can be used to get dirty clothes clean.
It may have a clue. You'll see what I mean.

Hose:
You use me to sprinkle the garden with water.
Right now I'm hiding clues for grandsons and granddaughters.

School house bird house:
Hunting for clues is fun with a buddy.
Where could a bird go to learn how to study?

Firehouse bird house:
A bird can make a nest in a tree or a tire,
or the house of a person who can put out a fire.

Large turtle sculpture:
Look up high. Look down low.
Look for the animal that moves really slow.

Front door:
Get a package or meet someone new.
You won't need to knock to find treats for YOU!
