[For Seniors] Never Run Out of Conversation Starters! A Collection of Fun Facts About April and Spring

The green in the three-colored dango carries the meaning of warding off evil.

A three-colored dango made up of pink, white, and green—something you often see in the dessert section at supermarkets.

Some people eat it regularly, and others enjoy it during cherry-blossom viewing or the Doll’s Festival.

But have you ever wondered why it has these three colors? There are various theories, but one says that green represents evil spirits, and pink and white—red and white—ward them off.

Another explanation is that the colors represent the seasons: pink for spring, white for winter, and green for summer.

Quiz in a spring field

Spring Vegetable Quiz (1) [Brain Training] [For Senior Facilities, etc.] Created in 2023 • For Recreation • Spring Vegetables • Fields • May Flowers • June Flowers • Flowers that Evoke Spring

Because plants grow differently depending on the season, there are of course vegetables that thrive in spring.

This is a quiz where we show photos of such springtime vegetables and have participants guess the name of each vegetable.

As more and more types of produce are available in supermarkets year-round, this can also prompt the realization that certain vegetables are actually in season in spring.

If the answer becomes too obvious just by seeing the vegetable itself, another recommended approach is to use photos of the flowers before the vegetables have formed and have participants guess from those.
