Yearly Spotlight Quiz: 34 Questions to Ask Your Kids

I love doing this yearly quiz with my boys on Mother’s Day! It gives us awesome one on one time and lets me keep a little history about each child.

It is so much fun to look back on their answers and see how things have changed and how they stay the same. I think they will absolutely love seeing who they were as a 6 or 10 or 15 year old as they get older…plus I love the one on one time to converse with them and get to know who they are and who and what is important to them at that moment in time and they love that time with me! These are all things I wish I could remember about my own childhood!

Frequently Asked Questions: Yearly Spotlight Quiz

When is the best time to do the yearly spotlight quiz?

Pick a date you will actually remember. I use Mother’s Day. Birthdays and the first day of school work just as well — the repeatability is the whole point.

What age should kids be to answer these questions?

Four or five is old enough if you ask out loud and write for them. Older kids can fill it in themselves, though you will get better answers if you sit there anyway.
