Trivia for Kids

Kids trivia is more fun when the questions are clear, varied, and answerable through things children encounter at school or in everyday life. This round mixes animals, science, math, color, and space.

The wording is direct, with no trick questions, so the challenge comes from remembering rather than decoding the host.
