Trivia collection

Trivia questions for kids

93 questions every child can answer: animals, food, cartoons, colours and games. There are no wrong guesses, only answers that are more or less rare.

These prompts work well with children because there is never just one right answer. “Name something with stripes” has an easy start for a five-year-old and a long tail for a curious ten-year-old.

A simple way to play at home or in class: read a prompt, go round the group, and everyone names something nobody has said yet. Whoever runs out of ideas sits out until the next prompt. It is the same idea as Seal Circle, the online version for friends.
