Nursery Teacher Mom Writertsukada moe
After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

A trick quiz is also known as a riddle or a bait-and-switch quiz.

When you hear the answer, you can experience a range of emotions—feeling satisfied, frustrated, and more.

Quizzes require imagination and creativity.

Children might even be better at them.

This time, we’ve gathered trick quiz questions that are easy to use in preschools and kindergartens.

How about holding a quiz contest as a morning or afternoon treat? Teachers can also use the examples as inspiration to create their own original questions.

Because the trash can was a product.

It wasn’t a trash can for throwing things away—it was a trash can that was for sale. Accidentally throwing it out is the kind of thing kids might have done.
