Hiragana Transformation Quiz

Add one letter to a word! Here’s an idea for a Hiragana transformation quiz.
これは幼稚園児がひらがなに親しむための楽しい方法です!例えば、くま(kuma, bear)に「る(ru)」を付けると「くるま(kuruma, car)」になり、たこ(tako, octopus)に「い(i)」を付けると「たいこ(taiko, drum)」になります。
Through the quiz, children discover the fun of how a word changes by adding a single Hiragana character to a complete word, making wordplay more and more enjoyable.
This can help them expand their vocabulary, deepen their understanding of Hiragana, and boost their motivation to learn new words!
Pun Quiz

It’s like a riddle and really fun! Here are some ideas for pun quizzes.
By using puns, you can create laughter while learning words—a unique idea.
For example, for the question “What card game is a tiger playing?” the answer would be “toranpu” (trump), a play on words in Japanese.
Try coming up with answers that work like puns.
Children will develop creativity by twisting words to produce funny answers.
It’s something you can enjoy with family and friends while experiencing the fun of wordplay, and it helps build vocabulary and a sense of humor too! Let’s think up questions together, from easy to a bit challenging, and find the answers while laughing.
I wonder what color it will be?

Let’s play with mixing two colors! What color will we get? Here are some fun ideas.
It’s a quiz that builds excitement as you think about what color will appear! When you mix red and blue, what color do you get? The moment kids guess it exactly right will make it even more fun.
Plus, it’s great to come up with items that use the answer color together! For example, for purple: “grapes!” “eggplant!” For orange: “carrot!” “mandarin orange!” Thinking of familiar things related to each color really expands their world of colors.
It’s a colorful, fun idea that lets kids learn while they play!
Animal Gesture Quiz

Capture the features and act them out! Here’s an idea for an animal gesture quiz.
It’s a unique game where you communicate answers using only movement—no words allowed! Think, “How does this animal walk?” and use your body to express it, conveying the animal’s traits without speaking.
Humorous gestures like a kangaroo’s hopping or a turtle’s slow shuffle are sure to fill the room with laughter! By remembering each animal’s characteristics, this fun idea lets you learn while playing through the quiz.
Opposite Words Quiz

If you know, tell me! Here’s an idea for an opposite-words quiz.
It’s a quiz where you answer using words you already know.
For example, the opposite of “big” is “small.” Think of words that have opposite meanings and answer.
When you learn the opposites of words you use in everyday life, your vocabulary grows.
Once you get used to it, try tackling the opposites of slightly more difficult words—it can make it even more fun! It’s a fun quiz that can also boost communication skills when you think about it together with family or friends.
Everyday Sounds Quiz

This is a quiz where you guess familiar everyday sounds.
Even if it’s a sound you hear all the time, when you really focus on it, you might find yourself thinking, “What sound is that again?” If you present this unique quiz at a thank-you party, the kids are sure to enjoy it.
Try focusing on easily recognizable sounds like “the sound of drawing a curtain” or “a vending machine sound.”

Gluttonous Ghost Quiz

The Gluttonous Ghost Quiz is a kind of quiz you perform like a panel theater.
As the song plays, everyone guesses what the silhouettes are.
Start with simple silhouettes and gradually increase the difficulty to build excitement.
The quiz presenter should keep a good pace and make sure the song can be heard by the participants.
For a thank-you party, it’s also a great idea to include silhouettes of the teachers or the kindergarten bus.
We hope you all have a fun and lively thank-you party!
