Memory Quiz
A “memory quiz” is a set of questions about things that happened at your kindergarten or school—places, events, teachers, and so on.
Unlike ordinary quizzes, the point is that only people who actually went there can answer.
As you think about the answers, you naturally start retracing your memories.
Before you know it, you might feel unexpectedly moved.
Making it somewhat challenging can spark lively “How was it again?” conversations among friends.
Preparing a prize for the winner is also recommended!
gift exchange party
Let’s all try exchanging heartfelt gifts! Things you can play with, mementos, items you can use after parting ways…
Just thinking a little brings so many gift ideas to mind, right? Think carefully about what will make the other person happy, and have fun choosing a present.

Double Dutch
It’s a jump rope performance using two ropes.
It takes practice, but if you nail the cool tricks, it really energizes the crowd! Finishing with everyone trying double Dutch together would build a sense of unity and make it even more fun.
Chalkboard animation
It’s a stop-motion animation using a chalkboard and chalk that you can find in any school! You draw illustrations on the board, take photos, and then connect them into a single video.
The collaborative work of sharing ideas together will also become an unforgettable memory!
Giant fukuwarai with the teacher’s face
As a New Year’s game, here’s a fun activity where kids play Fukuwarai using the face of their favorite teacher.
Make it big so everyone can see, and the kids will be thrilled watching the face turn out hilariously! What kind of face will it end up with in the end?
A letter as a present
Precisely because we write by hand less in our daily lives now, a heartfelt letter resonates even more.
The handwriting and the feelings woven into the words are sure to touch everyone’s heart! Why not send such a letter to a teacher who has helped you, a parent or guardian, or a friend? If you’re doing it at a farewell party, it would be nice to read the letter aloud in front of the teacher.
For those who can’t yet write, or have only just learned, how about writing the letter together with a parent or guardian? It will surely become an unforgettable memory!
Mosaic Art Letter
This is a fun idea where you create a mosaic artwork and present it as a video letter showing the process.
While you can easily make mosaic art with computer software, actually cutting and pasting small photos by hand can convey your feelings even more! It’s a very painstaking task, but the reaction and surprise will be all the greater, so definitely give it a try!
