The best one on the site IMO.
I prefered my version. Nicole's mother had 7 kids : Do, re, mi, fa, sol, la and Nicole
Nice one Michelle, liked it.
I have also heard this one before, but as "Tom's mom has four kids; Nickel, Dime, Quarter, and what is the fourth?"
Well my one is the very best: Davids father had 3 son's. Snap, crackle and who?
ive heard similar, but its still pretty cool
It's a classic!
This was the coolest!! Thanks for the fun teaser
This is about as original as a link to a scanned photo of a countefeit dollar.
Ooh, I read it wrong. I like this one a lot.

You did not get me on this one Michelle. Maybe next time!

I scoured the site three times over for a teaser like this when I was submitting my Isabelle version - now I know why it was called a dupe

she has three kids. 1st childs name is (place coin) penny. second childs name is (place coin) nickel-as whats the third childs name? You'ld be surprised how many times you can go through it without anyone getting it.

The version I heard was:
Mary's parents had 5 daughters: Nana, Nene, Nini, and Nono. What is the 5th daughter's name?

Too easy. Partly because I had heard another version before...
Pretty easy, but really cute!
What's amazing is how many of these "trick" teasers don't fit the category description perfectly. Instead, we have some that are jokes, and some, like this one, that are not hard at first, then easy with the trick, but easy at first, until you realize you have the WRONG answer.
