[For Seniors] Fun Quiz Questions That Liven Up December (1–10)
Seasonal Ingredients Quiz
This is a quiz themed around ingredients that are in season during the cold winter months.
Present the questions with part of the answer left blank to fill in.
If participants struggle to come up with the answer, offering hints like “It’s delicious in hot pot!” can liven things up.
After each answer, share information about the ingredient to help deepen knowledge.
Even if someone doesn’t know the exact answer, they can try responding by imagining from winter ingredients they’re familiar with.
Give this December-perfect quiz a try—everyone can enjoy it.
Christmas Quiz
Let’s work on quizzes that deepen your knowledge about Christmas as you answer them! By focusing on topics related to Christmas—like Santa and reindeer—you can enjoy the unique seasonal feel of December.
Try asking a wide range of questions, such as Santa’s country of origin or how to write “reindeer” in kanji.
It could be fun to turn it into a bit of fieldwork by including not only easy questions but also challenging ones.
Consider incorporating a Christmas quiz with surprises and new discoveries into your event.
Winter flavors reading quiz
During winter, what kinds of foods do you find yourself craving? Hot dishes like hot pot and stew… just thinking about them makes my mouth water.
And there are so many ingredients that are in season during winter! So how about a quiz with the theme of winter flavors? The names of ingredients will be shown in kanji, and you have to guess how to read them.
It seems easy once you hear the answer, but just seeing them written in kanji makes it surprisingly tricky.
Fish-related ones might be especially challenging!
Winter trivia quiz
How about livening things up with a “Winter Trivia Quiz” where everyone can cozy up indoors and learn together? If you look into it, you’ll find plenty of winter-related fun facts—like questions about Santa Claus and New Year’s traditions.
Let’s hunt for high-quality, trivia-style questions that make you go, “Wow!” Researching them is enjoyable and educational, so it’s a win-win.
What comes to mind in December? Sorting quiz
It’s a quiz themed around words related to winter.
The order of the hiragana that make up each word is all mixed up! You rearrange them to figure out what word is being shown.
What’s fun is that it’s not just scrambled—the characters might be upside down or mirrored, too! You really have to look carefully to arrive at the answer.
Since the theme is “winter,” it’s also fun to chat together about winter-related words as you work toward the correct answers.
Health Quiz
A topic that people of any age can’t help but care about is health, right? We all want to spend each day full of energy and feeling free.
Now, let’s try a quiz with the theme of “health”! It’s not a riddle—it’s full of information that’s genuinely useful in everyday life, so it’s both fun and educational.
Do you know the action that’s said to help relieve hip joint pain? It might be a good idea to discuss it with someone and narrow down the answer together!
Winter Flower Quiz
You might not associate winter with being full of flowers, but there are actually many blooms that look their best precisely because it’s winter! How about a “Winter Flower Quiz” as a day-service recreation to warm hearts during the cold season? Show photos of flowers like daffodils, poinsettias, and camellias, and have participants guess their names.
You could also give a quick lecture with fun facts or the language of flowers for each one.
It’s great brain training too, so highly recommended!
