I blink in the dark like a tiny star,
I fit in your hand and I never go far.
Catch twelve of me gently, then set me free.
What little glowing friends could I be?
Firefly Lanterns
They have wings and they like the dark.
Bacci's Glow Night
Eighteen riddles. Every answer is a real portal you can walk to. Solve one, go find it, come back and mark it.
Take your time. There is no timer and nothing to lose.
Short clues. Big wins. A grown-up can read these out loud.
I blink in the dark like a tiny star,
I fit in your hand and I never go far.
Catch twelve of me gently, then set me free.
What little glowing friends could I be?
Firefly Lanterns
They have wings and they like the dark.
In through your nose like you're smelling a rose,
out through your mouth like you're cooling your toes.
A cat sits beside you and counts to four.
Do it three times, then do it once more.
Breathe with Bacci
You already know how. You do it all day.
Round little pearls at the bottom of a cup,
a fat stripey straw to slurp them all up.
Shake me and sip me and watch how I glow.
What is the treat that bobs up and down low?
Bubble Tea Glow Stop
It is a drink with something chewy inside.
Capes and crowns and wings to wear,
pointy hats and purple hair.
Try on a hundred, keep just one.
Where do you go to try them on?
Bacci's Costume Closet
A room full of dress-up.
Pick any color, there is no wrong one,
fill in the moon and the cat and the sun.
Nobody grades it, there's no line to stay in.
Where does the coloring fun begin?
Color Studio
You need crayons, or a finger on glass.
When the lanterns go sleepy and the glow gets low,
say one kind thing, then off you go.
I am the last little room of the night.
I tuck in the dark and turn down the light.
Good Night Glow
It is how you say goodbye.
Trickier. Read it twice. The second read usually gives it away.
Six portals wait, and each one keeps a letter.
Alone they are nothing. Together they are better.
Find all six and the word comes alive.
Where do the letters of the glow word hide?
The Library of Shadows
Six portals, one glow word. It is a new chapter.
Tell me a worry, I'll hold it up tight,
then POP, it becomes a kernel of light.
I'm yellow and golden and good in a bowl.
Who turns a small worry into something whole?
Cozy Corn's Worry Pop
You eat this at the movies.
A claw on a wire, hovering slow,
line it up, breathe, then let it go.
Steady hands win, but hurry hands don't.
Try me again if the first grab won't.
Bacci's Glow Crane
An arcade machine that drops down.
Every room that you visit leaves a mark inside me,
I fill up slowly, so travel and see.
I am not a prize, I am proof where you went.
What do you carry from portal to portal?
Halloween Passport
Grown-ups use one of these at airports.
Look at me and I look right back,
I copy your smile and I copy your frown.
Say I AM and I'll say it with you,
twice as loud and twice as true.
Mirror Portal
You have one in your bathroom.
Follow the little lights, one, then another,
past the hot pots and tables and under the rafter.
I am not one stop, I am all of the way.
I am the path, not the place that you stay.
The Lantern Trail
It is a route, not a room.
Real wordplay. No shame in using a hint. The Crest does not judge.
I grow without soil and I bloom without rain,
my petals are facets, my roots are a chain.
I am cut, not grown, yet I shine like I'm living.
What garden is colder and brighter than giving?
The Crystal Glow Garden
Think of something you would find in a cave, or on a ring.
I take what is frightening and spin it around,
the very same letters, a happier sound.
Two of my letters are perfectly round,
Add a hoo and a hoo and I'm joy, not a frown.
Boo to Woo-Hoo! DJ Remixo
A scary word with two round letters, turned into a cheer.
I am full of books that read you back,
every page knows the shape of your day.
Open me gently, I lean toward your hand.
What library listens as much as it lends?
The Living Library
Libraries hold stories. This one holds yours.
I am worn on the face but I hide nothing at all,
I take what's inside you and hang it outside.
Most masks are a secret. I am the reverse.
What ball do you dance at with feelings on show?
GlimmerEmpath Masquerade
A fancy party where everyone wears a mask.
Three realms, one rhythm, one trail that aligns,
my number falls over and loops without end.
Stand me upright and I'm only a digit.
Lay me down flat and I'm forever, my friend.
SynchroTrail 8
Which number becomes infinity when you tip it over?
I am the last thing you earn and the first thing you keep,
I am paper and gold and your own name in ink.
I prove nothing to strangers. I only prove you.
What do you carry home when the glow is through?
Keepsake Certificate
Schools give these out at the end of the year.
Solve all eighteen riddles and the Crest will show you what you earned.
