Kids search around the room based on the hidden clues, moving forward with excitement as new hints appear one after another—it’s truly thrilling! Preparation is easy, so it’s a game you can enjoy casually with friends or at home.
High-level riddle

The great thing about quizzes and riddles is that, compared to other recreational activities, they require no preparation.
Just by saying “What am I?” and posing a question, the atmosphere instantly lightens.
They’re easy to do, the more people there are, the more fun it gets, and I really want elementary school kids to enjoy more quizzes.
If you’re thinking, “I’m not satisfied with ordinary-level quizzes anymore!” then definitely try some high-level riddles! For example, “What’s something that has a price written on it but you can’t buy?” The answer is “a price tag.” Tricky questions like these can be real brain-twisters.
That said, no matter how hard the questions are, it’s not a good idea to only ask mean or unfair quizzes!

A puzzle quiz I’d like elementary school students to try

We’d like to introduce riddle quizzes that are perfect for elementary school students, where flexible thinking is the key.
Have them look at the illustrations and text, and think about what letters fit into the question mark.
Encourage them to observe what the illustrations and words represent.
The answer may come to them naturally.
If the answer is difficult, try offering simple hints to keep it fun and engaging.
Take on the quizzes while valuing children’s flexible, creative thinking!
Hinamatsuri Quiz

If you look closely, aren’t the faces of the Hina dolls displayed for the Doll’s Festival a little scary? When I was a child, for some reason those dignified, demure expressions looked scary to me.
If there’s a Hina Matsuri event in your community, why not make a “Hina Matsuri Quiz” together and have some fun? I think it’s wonderful to learn about Japan’s annual traditions while creating your own original questions.
For example: Hina Matsuri is also called the “_____ no Sekku” — what fruit goes in the blank? Or, What is the special rice cake eaten during Hina Matsuri? Even the basic facts can be fun.
It might also be nice to enjoy it at a Hina Matsuri party with friends!
