Recommended performances for elementary school thank-you parties: carefully selected games and skits that will liven things up!

Bingo Relay

[Recreation] Bingo Relay

It would be great to get everyone moving and excited at the elementary school thank-you party! Here’s a “Bingo Relay” that both teachers and students can enjoy together.

Draw a 3×3 grid on the floor or place markers to form nine squares.

Each runner, when they arrive, places one cone or similar item in a square.

Teams take turns in a relay placing cones, and the team that completes a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line wins! It’s not just about running—judgment is key, too, like blocking the other team when they’re about to complete a line or placing cones to your team’s advantage.

This game works indoors, such as in a gym, so make it a memorable thank-you party!

Blind tasting

Blind Tasting: Testing if you can guess what you're eating with a blindfold and nose plug!

Blind tasting is a big hit as an activity to liven up a thank-you party.

When your sight and sense of smell are blocked and you put food in your mouth, even snacks you usually eat without thinking become hard to tell apart.

Because participants must identify foods by texture alone, it sparks surprise and laughter, which also boosts communication.

For example, viewers really enjoyed the scene where a participant with their nose plugged with tissues tried to identify chocolate.

It’s a wonderful game where teachers and students can discover unexpected sides of each other, so it’s recommended if you want to make your thank-you party truly memorable.

Guess the anime from the quote

[Anime Quiz] Guess the anime from the quotes! 10 questions in total

A quiz where you guess the anime title from a single line: “Guess the Anime by the Quote.” Since many famous anime lines are deeply moving, it’s fun not only for anime fans but for everyone participating! If you pick quotes that convey gratitude or the feeling of “We’re going to keep doing our best and living our lives!” even the teachers might be touched.

You can read the lines aloud, but creating a video or slides to play them will liven up the venue even more.

Who am I?

[Who Am I? Quiz] For Seniors! Guess the Answer from 3 Hints [10 Questions]

“Who am I?” is a quiz.

It says “who,” but the answers aren’t limited to people—they can be objects, animals, foods, and more.

You’ll get three hints about the “thing,” and you have to guess the answer from them.

Even for things that are familiar or that we use every day, this quiz can be surprisingly tricky.

But once you figure it out, you’ll go “Ahh!” and it all makes perfect sense (lol).

Of course, it’s also fun to make questions about people close to you, like friends.

Without Katakana

Simple and fun! A class-energizing activity: “Katakana-less”

In everyday life, we often use words written in katakana.

Here, we’d like to introduce “Katakana-ashi,” a game where you explain a given topic without using katakana.

For example, you show a ball used in P.E.

and ask, “What is this?” The answer will likely be “ball.” Next, have them describe the ball without using any katakana.

Children will likely search for answers by thinking of various words in their heads.

Try switching the roles of questioner and answerer and give it a go.

Blindfolded stepping game

Zero Discomfort! The blindfolded stepping game results are terrible! [Akagami no Tomo]

As the name suggests, it’s a simple game where you just march in place while blindfolded.

Mark the starting spot with tape, have players march in big, steady steps to a fixed rhythm during the time limit, and aim to keep them marching on the taped spot.

The fun part is that, even though you think you’ve stayed put, when you take off the blindfold you might be somewhere completely different.

It’s also a game that makes you realize how much you rely on your vision, so it could be useful for teaching the dangers of looking away or getting distracted.

tic-tac-toe

[Shocking] Do you know the real way to read Japanese? True-or-False Quiz

How about trying a true-or-false quiz that everyone can enjoy, even with a large group? It’s great because kids and adults can have fun together.

These days, there are plenty of videos that compile trivia quizzes, so using those is an easy option.

Of course, creating your own original quiz questions is also a good idea.

Questions related to graduation or fun secrets about friends and teachers will definitely liven things up! It’s also fun to set up a space where everyone moves to the True (O) or False (X) side.
