No, neither of those. I enter again with an axe.

(I'm a bit worried I may have made this puzzle/challenge too difficult/lateral, especially considering the particular users who tend to respond in this thread, but there's a major clue somewhere.)

Yeah, I'm aware this particular puzzle would probably be easier for users a bit older than 10... which is a sort of clue in itself. I'll probably go for something more straightforward next time. :P

I enter again with a sheep.

Hmm, can I enter with a bottle?
Questions:
Is this sequential?
Is the hyphen in see-saw involved in some way?

No, you cannot enter with a bottle. It's not sequential, but I will say that the amount of objects that can enter the room is finite. Also, I think you specifically might have the highest chance of solving this puzzle of the people who've posted here so far, because of what I know of your interests outside CGoL.

I enter again with a gnome.

No. It's pretty close to being something that would let you in, in several ways, but it does not work in itself. For example, I enter again with ice.

No. I enter again with frost.

Oh, the hyphen? It's not really that important, I'd still allow you to enter if you spelled it "seesaw", but I did spell it that way for a reason.

No. I enter again with a pillow.

(At this point, I think the solution could be found simply by Googling, though that's obviously against the spirit of the game.)

I suppose I really did make this one too difficult, if no-one can find the answer without Google. :( I thought the clue I gave in my first post would help...

Well, guessing from the yellow-pink relation, I'm guessing pink also fits whatever the pattern is.
