If this is a brain bender type question then there is probably no "right" answer.

There used to be a big box called Think Lab at the school where I worked and that was full of interesting puzzles for kids to think about. The questions were often the sort of activity like "How many uses can you think of for a brick?" and it was all down to the imagination of the child.

Well I never!! I would have thought that would be a dangerous thing to throw, sharp edges and seeds blowing in peoples' eyes etc.

Did he choose that one?

I would have thought that bird seed would cause more dirt than confetti.
It certainly does when we put out bird feeders in the garden.
A well, nice homework, it made the whole family join in.
Can't be bad.

2. What is light as a feather, but even the strongest man cannot hold it more than a few minutes?
