Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was Father's trade?

Answer: Sold chopped wood

When he came home to Hansel and Gretel outside he clearly hadn't sold any wood, leaving the family destitute much to Stepmother's chagrin.

2. What did Hansel use to find their way home?

Answer: Pebbles

After hearing Stepmother's plans in the night Hansel snuck out of the house and gathered up 6 to 12 pebbles. During their trek into the woods Hansel dropped a pebble causing Father and Stepmother to call out to him not to dawdle.

3. What trick did Father and Stepmother use on Hansel and Gretel?

Answer: Swinging log

Some rope was tied to a log and with the wind and momentum it gently made a thud against a tree simulating the sound of chopping wood. Hansel and Gretel then followed the pebbles to find their way home. Side note: Hansel probably should have picked up the said pebbles in case they needed them later on.

4. What did Hansel use to find their way home the second time?

Answer: Bread

Stepmother handed Hansel and Gretel each a piece of bread for lunch so Hansel used his piece as a trail for them to follow. Only birds had landed and ate every piece of bread.

5. What part of the house did Hansel and Gretel eat?

Answer: Roof and window

Hansel ate part of the roof which was made of chocolate cake and Gretel ate the candied window. The fence was made out of gingerbread sized children the witch had trapped over the years.

6. What did the Witch feed Gretel?

Answer: Crab shells

The Witch saved all the fattening and sweet foods for Hansel as she wanted to fatten him up so she could eat him up. Gretel snuck the food Hansel was supposedly eating out to the woods to bury and she snuck in a bite of a cream puff.

7. What did Hansel agree to eat?

Answer: Bread

To keep from dying of starvation Hansel agreed to eat the bread. He soon noticed that Gretel started to put on weight.

8. Who killed the Witch?

Answer: Gretel

The Witch had the magic oven turned on and wanted Gretel to test the temperature by getting inside. Gretel tricked her into testing it herself and she shoved the Witch inside the oven. She kept banging on the oven door until her wooden cane snapped.

9. Who came back to life afterwards?

Answer: Gingerbread fence

The magic oven exploded and one by one the gingerbread fence made of past children the Witch had eaten came back to life.

10. What then happened to the Witch?

Answer: Turned into gingerbread

After the gingerbread children came back to life the Witch was turned into gingerbread herself. When Hansel and Gretel returned home at last and they learned that Stepmother was dead.
