Illustration for riddle: There is a green house. Inside the green house there is a White house. Inside the White house there — Can you figure out this riddle?

There is a green house. Inside the green house there is a White house. Inside the White house there is a red house. Inside the red house there are lots of babies. What am I?

A watermelon. Green=outer shell White=next layer Red=inside Babies= the seeds

Why this works

This riddle plays on the layers and colors of a watermelon, cleverly using the terms "green house," "White house," and "red house" to describe the different parts of the fruit. The outer green skin represents the exterior of the watermelon, while the white rind is the next layer, and the juicy red flesh is the sweet part we eat. The "lots of babies" refers to the numerous seeds found within the red flesh, making the entire riddle a delightful metaphor for the structure of a watermelon!

Common Wrong Answers

“A salad”

While a salad can contain a variety of vegetables and colors, it does not match the layered structure or the specific details about 'babies' (seeds) as described in the riddle.

“A traffic light”

A traffic light has colors similar to those mentioned in the riddle, but it does not have layers or contain seeds, thus failing to meet the riddle's criteria.

“A Christmas ornament”

Christmas ornaments can be colorful and are often green or red, but they do not have the layered structure or the concept of seeds, making this guess incorrect.
