Not everything that can be broken is a physical object. This classic riddle invites you to think beyond things you can hold in your hands.
The riddle
What can you break without ever touching it?
Think about something you give to another person with your words.
The answer
A promise.
You can make a promise by speaking or writing, and you can break it by not doing what you said you would do. No physical contact is involved.
Did you come up with “a promise,” or did you think of another clever answer?
