60 free Disney Cartoons Trivia for Kids trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
This Disney cartoons for kids trivia quiz is about the cartoon characters and TV shows rather than the big movies: Mickey Mouse and Steamboat Willie, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Chip and Dale and Pete, then DuckTales, Darkwing Duck, TaleSpin, Recess, Kim Possible, Phineas and Ferb, Gravity Falls, The Owl House, Amphibia and Big City Greens, and Disney Junior favourites like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Doc McStuffins, Sofia the First, Puppy Dog Pals, Vampirina, Jake and the Never Land Pirates and The Lion Guard. It is written for kids roughly 6 to 12, for classrooms, car rides and family quiz nights, with mostly easy and medium questions and a few harder ones at the end for the older cartoon nerds. If you want the movies instead, try our Disney trivia for kids page. Every answer has been checked against the Wikipedia article on the character or series, and each question shows its source once you have answered.
