What goes up and down stairs without moving?
A carpet.
Give it food and it will live; give it water and it will die.
Fire
What can you catch but not throw?
A cold
I run, yet I have no legs. What am I?
A nose.
Remove the outside, cook the inside, eat the outside, throw away the inside.
Corn
What gets wetter the more it dries?
A towel
The more there is, the less you see.
Darkness
They come at night without being called and are lost in the day without being stolen.
Stars
What kind of room has no windows or doors?
A mushroom.
I have holes on the top and bottom. I have holes on my left and on my right. And I have holes in the middle, yet I still hold water. What am I?
A sponge.
I look at you, you look at me, I raise my right, you raise your left. What is this object?
A mirror
The more you take the more you leave behind.
Footsteps
Light as a feather, there is nothing in it; the strongest man can't hold it for much more than a minute.
Breath
As I walked along the path I saw something with four fingers and one thumb, but it was not flesh, fish, bone, or fowl.
A glove
What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?
A river
What can fill a room but takes up no space?
Light
