Riddles about the number 1 for children: short, with answers

Proverbs and sayings with the number 1

A mountain of a thousand miles begins with one grain of sand. You can't build a house from one tree. You can't make porridge from just a grain of wheat. Better to see once than hear a hundred times. In one place the stone is overgrown with moss. One for all and all for one. One madman threw a stone into a well, but a hundred wise men were unable to retrieve it. One beaten one is worth two unbeaten ones. Break one pancake in half. One is in the harrow, and everyone is to the side. One is in sin, and everyone is responsible. Alone at sea is not a fisherman. Alone in the field is not a warrior. One warrior leads a thousand. One wolf chases a regiment of sheep. One thief - ruin for the whole world. One eye is on us, and the other is on Arzamas. I've been stuck for ten years for one year. One goose will not trample down the field. One is like a stump, and the other is like a log. One horse will not kick up dust, and even if it does kick up dust, it will not achieve glory. If you bite one finger, everything hurts. One is plowing, and seven are waving their arms. One about Thomas, the other about Yerema. Once doesn't count. Once you fail, the second time you'll learn. Once protect yourself from fire, another time from water. Once you look - flowers and roses, another time you look - wind and storm. One mouth and he fights. One chops, and the other blows a trumpet. One with a bipod, and seven with a spoon. Miron has one son, and that one is Mironovich. One mind is good, but two are better. One smart man drives ten crazy people. One is like a moon in the sky. Everywhere is home for the lonely. One misfortune comes, another leads. One misfortune does not go away: misfortune will give birth to misfortune. One spring in your homeland is better than a hundred springs in a foreign land. One head on his shoulders. One head it's good, but two better. One swallow does not make spring. One fox will lead seven wolves. One fly in the ointment spoils a barrel of honey. One wise head is worth a hundred heads. One leg here, the other there. One clothes - both in the world, and at the feast, and in the backyard. Only truth lives in the world. One bee is better than a swarm of flies. One bee does not make much honey. One hand in honey, the other in molasses. One hand does not knit a knot. One luck goes, another leads. Sleep with one eye and watch with the other. If you cut down one tree, you plant ten. One grain yields a handful. One eye can see far. One today is better than two tomorrow. One ear is deaf. Birds of a feather. You can't clap your hands with one hand. You can't tie a knot with one hand. He lights it with one hand and puts it out with the other. If you go alone, the road is long. To live alone is to make your heart cold, but in public even death is red. It's boring to walk alone and drown yourself. One had it come true, but the other failed. One is scared, but everyone (the world) is not scared. (Together it’s not scary.) One word can lead to a quarrel forever. A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. Once you lie, you become a liar forever. Hands can overcome one, knowledge – a thousand. The hedgehog has one strength - its spines. What you can't do alone, ten will do. What is food for one is poison for another.

Adam is the first lucky person on earth, because he did not have a mother-in-law (Jewish).
Three couples will never agree: two women in the same kitchen, two cats with one mouse, and two men who care for one woman (Irish).

One unfaithful friend is worse than a thousand enemies (Armenian).
Of all the people on earth, only one is needed to be happy (Russian).

In folk wisdom, the voice of morality is heard: “One rotten pear will spoil the whole basket,” they say in China. “One mangy sheep will spoil the whole flock,” the Briton will say. In Russian it will be: “Whoever you get along with, that’s how you’ll gain.”

The Chinese will say: “One joy will drive away a hundred troubles.” And he will add: “When there are only two coppers left in your wallet, buy bread for the first, and a flower for the second.” “One flower does not bring spring,” the Azerbaijani will object.

Puzzles

If proverbs and sayings teach and instruct, then riddles develop ingenuity and intelligence in children. And riddles that involve numbers also help teach counting.

Any riddle is built on a metaphor. This is a means of artistic expression that involves describing any qualities of an object or phenomenon through other objects or phenomena. Remember the well-known riddles about the night and the stars, where the sky is a blue canvas, and the stars are small nails with which it is nailed. Indeed, if you look at the sky at night, the stars can be compared to the heads of nails.

Let's look at what comparisons riddles for children about numbers are based on. The most common number in folklore is seven. This is a sacred number, and the idea of harmony and the ideal is associated with it.

Thus, seven is compared to a scythe used to cut hay. Eight is very similar to a tumbler, because the number consists of two circles placed on top of each other. The two are often compared and drawn as a swan arching its neck. Zero is very similar to a donut or a ball, and six and nine always act like twins.

Children have a lot of their own ideas associated with numbers. You can ask the children not only to guess ready-made riddles, but also to compose their own.

This type of work develops:

- logical thinking;
- fantasy;
- associative thinking,

which is very useful for the holistic creative development of the child.
