Show them the prompt and have them guess what it looks like.
A stuffed animal works well as the prompt, too.
With the call, “What do you think this is?”, the children will think hard and give lots of answers.
Once many answers are out, reveal the correct answer.
Knowing the answer will likely make the children even more excited.
There is a correct answer, but it’s also fine to treat all of their answers as correct.
Let’s use the quiz to bring out the children’s rich imaginative thinking.
Animal Quiz
@papa_to_chimari My daughter's riddle challenge is way too funny lolFunny videos#funnyvideo#FunnyVideo
♪ Original Song – Papa and Chimari’s Room [Parent-Child Comedy] – Papa and Chimari’s Room [Parent-Child Comedy]
This is a classic, crowd-pleasing animal quiz.
There aren’t any strict rules, so try asking questions about animals.
You could guess the animal from its characteristics or answer fun trivia about animals—there are lots of possible formats.
You could also give it a riddle-like feel, or have participants draw their answers as illustrations.
Try creating the perfect quiz tailored to different ages and preferences.
For a more unique twist, you can make it a team competition or use buzzers.
Guess the song quiz
A song-guessing quiz that anyone can enjoy, regardless of age.
You might find it easier to think of it as an intro quiz.
As the name suggests, you listen to the song’s intro and try to be the first to guess the title.
Playing songs that kids usually sing, current hits, or anime tracks will boost the correct answer rate and make it even more fun.
It’s also a good idea to choose songs that match the season or specific events.
Another feature of this quiz is that adults and children can enjoy it together.
Perfect for when you want everyone to get lively and have a great time.
Sketchbook Quiz
Let’s flip through a few pages and take a peek! Here are some sketchbook quiz ideas.
They’re fun prompts that spark kids’ imaginations based on the visible clues.
Use the drawings and colors in the sketchbook as hints and give the quiz a try! Asking “What is it?” or “I wonder what this could be?” will surely deepen communication with friends and classmates.
Quizzes that incorporate visual elements are memorable and exciting.
Give them a try!
Instrument Quiz
A lively instrument quiz where you listen and answer.
In this activity, you listen to the timbre and guess what instrument it is.
First, let them hear the instrument on its own, then have them sing along to match the timbre—this way, they’ll enjoy it whether they get it right or not.
Beyond being a fun quiz, the real charm is that it might spark interest in music and instruments.
It’s a bit off the quiz track, but introducing each instrument one by one could be fun too.
What am I saying?
A simple, instant-fun quiz where you guess what someone is saying.
As the name suggests, an adult mouths some words, and the children try to guess them.
If you decide on themes in advance—like animals or vehicles—it’ll be easier for the kids to figure out the answers.
You can also adjust the difficulty by changing the length of the words or phrases.
Give it a try when you suddenly feel like running a quick quiz.
And instead of just asking the questions, try doing it to a song or music to make it even more exciting.

Whose foot is it?
Enjoy a “Whose Foot Is It?” quiz while watching videos.
This idea uses videos available on platforms like YouTube.
In the video, an animal’s foot appears first, and you guess which animal it belongs to.
You’ll see everything from animals with distinctive feet, like horses, to trickier ones, like monkeys.
The wide variety keeps it from getting boring.
If you’re not using videos, you can recreate the activity with photos and cut-out construction paper.
Try whichever suits the situation.
