this is one that took me a while
you have to get a fox, a duck, and a bag of corn across the river, your boat is only strong enough to carry you and one other thing. you cant leave the fox alone with the duck or the duck alone with the corn. how do you solve it?
if you want to make it more challenging add this
there are hungry birds at the other side, the fox will scare them away but they will eat the corn and kill the duck if they are not taken back in one trip

 

[Krakyn]

My turn. Scene; a farmer has to cross a river. He can only fit two in the boat from this list, along with himself; Fox, Goose, Grain sack. How does he get all three across without losing any of them? Assuming the fox and the goose won't run away.
