Showdown in the zoo quiz!
Zoos are popular spots for children, aren’t they? In zoos, you can find all kinds of animals—from favorites to ones you’ve never seen before.
With eyes sparkling, children are likely observing the animals with great interest.
Even without going to a zoo, some children may still be keen on animals.
So, why not try doing a quiz with them about animal characteristics and habitats? If it’s about animals they already know, they’ll be happy to get the answers right and feel a sense of accomplishment.
And if it’s about animals they don’t know, the quiz will help them expand their knowledge about animals.
Guess the two hidden ones!
We’d like to introduce a popular quiz for elementary school kids who get excited by mysterious images: “Guess the Two Hidden Animals.” It’s an illusion quiz made by cutting photos of two different animals into thin strips and interlacing them.
If you look closely, there are plenty of clues hidden in the stripes! Using hints like ear shapes and eye positions, you deduce which animals have been combined.
It’s sure to be a hit when you play with friends.
Not only does it train attention and observation skills in a fun way, but the thrill of shouting “I got it!” when you find the answer is especially satisfying.
It’s an intelligent and entertaining animal quiz that’s perfect for schools and events.

Two-choice quiz about sea creatures
Guess the creature from its name! In the “Two-Choice Sea Creatures Quiz,” you’re given the name of a creature and choose the real one from two illustrations.
Both illustrations depict real marine animals, so it’s fun to think things like, “Which one is the jellyfish?” or “Is the clownfish this brightly colored one, or the one with this pattern?” Even if you know the names, you might not know what they actually look like, making it engaging for both kids and adults.
It’s perfect for prepping before a trip to the aquarium or for free time at school.
After checking the answers, we recommend looking them up for real.
It’s a quiz that helps you learn more about marine life while you play.
What part of speech is “strawberry”?
If you’re asked what language “strawberry” is, you’d naturally say English.
But this is a trick question! The answer isn’t English.
So what is it? To solve it, you need to realize it’s a trick and notice that the “go” in “nani go” (“what language”) is written in hiragana, not the kanji for “language.” And what does “strawberry” actually refer to in the first place? Once you see that, you’ll reach the answer! It’s a question that tends to be swayed by your knowledge, but a child might answer it in an instant.
What gets hotter as it gets colder?

This puzzle is tricky because there are many possible answers.
Things that get hotter as it gets colder… You might be thinking of hand warmers or clothing, but the correct answer is something else.
First, try picturing a winter scene.
List a few things you associate with it, and think about “getting hot” as the keyword.
Also pay close attention to the fact that it’s written in hiragana! The answer is something everyone knows, and you’re likely to see it at least once in summer.
Here’s a hint: it’s something that melts in heat.
There are 5 candies. If you lick one, how many are there?

It seems like a question that would trip up adults more than children.
When you read the problem statement, you instinctively want to treat it like an arithmetic problem and think, “5 – 1 = 4, so the answer is 4!” But remember, it’s a trick question.
The hint to solving it is that the candy wasn’t given to someone else, nor did it disappear.
If you think about how many candies you have after you lick one, you should arrive at the correct answer.
An elementary school student with a flexible mind might solve it right away!

Honey is sweet and delicious, isn’t it? You can pour it on pancakes, add it to tea instead of sugar—there are countless dishes and products that use honey.
So let’s try a honey-themed trick quiz! When is honey sweet? “In the season when bees fly a lot?” “Does it have something to do with the number eight?” Many people might think that, but the answer is actually very simple! Just think: when do you feel it’s “sweet”? If you approach it that way, the correct answer should come to you easily!
