The time of year can have a significant bearing on the type of questions you include. While you can, in theory, ask any question at any time, it makes more sense to tailor the questions to the season. For example, it fits that holiday quizzes contain questions relating to Thanksgiving or Hanukkah, while quizzes hosted in the summer won't contain so many festive-themed questions.
3. Who will be answering the questions?

However, quizzes for adults can contain any question, and these can be especially tricky to answer correctly if they follow a common theme.
