Question 1

午

Answer 1

午 Noon ご

The slide is dry at noon. The sun is brightest at noon, so it dries the morning dew off the slide, making noon the perfect time to slide.

Noon also happens to be the time Godzilla (ご) decided to attack for the same reasons: it’s dry and kids are using the slide.

Question 2

北

Answer 2

北 North ほく

Balance a spoon on your pointed fingers and it will always point north. The spoon is like a compass needle and your fingers guide the knowledge your body already has and uses it to point north. That’s science, friends!

You realize that this ability to find north is probably really valuable, so you go to the nearest pawn shop and hock (ほく) it. Even your fingers.

Question 3

半

Answer 3

半 Half はん

A triceratops is laying out to dry. But it’s so big, and it’s laying on its side, so only half of it gets dry.

“You’re half wet and half dry! I will cut you in half with my laser blaster so you’re proper again,” a voice says. It is Han Solo (はん), the anti-establishment guy who hates when things aren’t even.

Question 4

市

Answer 4

市 City し

You lift the lid off a manhole and there’s a towel with the name of a city on it.

This city must have a lot of sheep (し) because there is a sheep monogram on the towel. It’s the sheep city.

Question 5

広

Answer 5

広 Wide ひろ

The canopy you use in private is very wide.

You like being wide because it makes you feel like a different person. But not just any person, like a super hero (ひろ)!
