This August 24th, challenge yourself with a handwritten word puzzle that has been sparking some great conversations online! It is a classic brain teaser that might just bring back a few memories, and it is a wonderful test of your creative thinking.
The image asks a very simple question: “What has a cap but no head?”
What makes this puzzle so clever is how it plays with our everyday vocabulary. Because the riddle specifically mentions a “cap” and a “head,” our brains naturally jump straight to thinking about hats, clothing, or people. If you try to solve it by thinking about winter wear or baseball caps, you will find yourself completely stuck!
To solve this one, you have to think about the different ways we use the word “cap” in the English language. Instead of a piece of clothing, think about the twist-off plastic or metal top of something you might drink your favorite cold beverage out of!
Answer: A bottle.
