Kiddo
Answer:
TYKE
Hint:
Think of a playful term for a very young child, often used to describe someone small and full of energy. It rhymes with a word for a bicycle with tiny wheels.
Explanation:
"Kiddo" is a casual term for a young child, and "tyke" means the exact same thing—just a more old-fashioned or playful way to say it. The clue plays on synonyms, so no wordplay or tricks are involved. If you hear someone call a little kid a "tyke," they’re just using a slightly quirky word for "child." Think of it like "moppet" or "sprog"—same idea, just less common in everyday talk.
