Fun Quiz Collection Guaranteed to Stump and Delight Elementary School Kids

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 as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

Elementary school children are full of curiosity, and their ability to understand humor grows day by day.

As they enjoy communicating with friends, they also increasingly think about things from their own unique perspectives.

Here, we introduce some “gotcha quizzes” that elementary schoolers at this stage will enjoy.

Even questions that seem simple can have unexpected answers—that’s the fun of trick questions.

Thinking from different angles also helps develop their reasoning skills.

There are plenty of quizzes that adults can enjoy too, so by all means, have kids and adults take on the challenge together!

The “say it 10 times” quiz is probably a game that every elementary schooler has enjoyed at least once.

You have someone repeat the same word 10 times, then you ask a question.

The repeated word influences them, and they end up answering incorrectly.

Here, you’ll find four such ‘say it 10 times’ quizzes.

They’re questions you could figure out if you think carefully, but your accuracy drops if you rush—so be careful! It might help to assume that the first answer that pops into your head is wrong, and then think it through.
