[Childcare] Spring Quiz Collection | Fun for Adults and Kids Alike

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked for 10 years as a kindergarten teacher and for 7 years as an after-school childcare instructor, then took a post as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I also engaged in activities that shared Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational play, working with many children. Afterwards, through freelance writing, planning, and editing work at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and conveying ideas. Leveraging the perspective cultivated in educational settings and my experience as an editor, I aim to deliver practical information—focusing on fields related to music and children—that values both input and output. Hobbies include instruments, singing, handcrafts, toys, drawing, traditional play, the outdoors, books, DIY, and crafts. Special skill: spinning-top tricks.
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.

With warm sunshine, refreshing breezes, and colorful flowers in bloom, spring naturally lifts our spirits! Why not make spring even more enjoyable by doing a quiz with the children during childcare? Here, we’ve put together quizzes related to spring.

There might even be questions that adults don’t know! Be sure to think them through together with the kids.

It’s also a great idea to use these as a reference and create your own original multiple-choice (three-option) quizzes.

Discover the wonders of spring and create heartwarming memories!

Spring is the season when lettuce grows well. During this time, despite the lingering cold, the days get longer and warmer, allowing the lettuce leaves to develop firmly.
