Quizzes and riddles for toddlers and kids. Perfect for early learning! (11–20)
Odd one out quiz
How about having some fun with an odd-one-out quiz? You can choose any theme for the questions, but using things familiar to children will help them grasp the content quickly.
For example, find the odd one out among police car, panda, zebra, and fire engine, or among rhinoceros, lion, tiger, and leopard.
It’s a quiz that develops the ability to think independently and to apply knowledge.
It may be a bit difficult for preschoolers, but try enjoying it while adults give hints.
Give it a try while communicating kindly and cooperatively.
Flag Quiz
The “national flag quiz,” where you look at a flag and guess the country’s name, is something that all young children love.
If only all social studies—often a subject many struggle with—were filled with engaging elements like national flags, how much more fun it would be! Once you’ve memorized a set of flags, try arranging the quiz in different ways.
For example: “Which countries have flags consisting of the two colors red and white?” Answers: Japan, Canada, Switzerland.
“Which countries have tricolors?” Answers: France, Italy, the Netherlands, and so on.
The national flag quiz seems perfect for integrated studies time at school, too!
Riddles Thought Up by an Elementary School Student
The riddles introduced here were created by elementary school students.
They’re categorized by difficulty based on correct-answer rates, ranging from easy to hard.
Some of them really make you think, “That’s a perspective only a child would have.” Making riddles requires a lot of thought from the creator, too.
If you take turns presenting your own original riddles, both the answerers and the presenters can get a good mental workout—and have fun! It’s also considerate to prepare a hint when you present a riddle.
Entrance Exam Problems for Highly Competitive Elementary Schools
Elementary school entrance exams are becoming more common year by year.
Have you ever wondered what kinds of questions appear on these tests? The ones introduced here come from highly competitive elementary schools.
Since formal study really begins after children start elementary school, the content on these entrance exams tends to evaluate innate ability, mental flexibility, and creativity.
Even adults may find some of the problems challenging.
This quiz might help you discover children’s hidden talents! Give it a try at least once.
trick question
A trick quiz is the kind that makes you blurt out “Ah!” when you realize the answer.
If you don’t read the question carefully, you may fail to find the answer, or what you thought was correct may reveal contradictions when you reconsider it—so it’s not straightforward.
Even when you’re sure you’re right, you need to pause and think calmly; otherwise, trick quizzes are hard to solve.
That’s why they help you develop the ability to judge things cool-headedly.
They’re especially recommended when you’re bored with ordinary quizzes!
Doraemon Quiz
Doraemon is a beloved, nationally famous anime enjoyed by people of all ages.
It began airing in 1979 and has been cherished by many ever since.
As a long-running show, it’s full of all kinds of episodes and tidbits—some not prominently featured in the anime but still important to fans.
The Doraemon Quiz gathers everything from questions everyone who’s seen the show should know to hidden episodes that make you exclaim, “Wait, really?” It would be even more fun to play together with kids who love Doraemon!

Telling Time Quiz
To be able to quickly say what time it is when you look at a clock, let’s learn how to read clocks properly using a quiz format! If you have a toy clock with movable hour and minute hands, try using it.
First, keep the minute hand fixed at the 12 and move only the hour hand, answering what hour it shows.
Once you get used to that, start moving the minute hand as well so you can answer the exact time, down to the minutes.
Also, try some applied quizzes like: “What time will it be ○ minutes from now?” and “What time was it ○ minutes ago?”
