Hanami Trivia Spin
Spin into a topic, answer a question, and collect Sakura Petals. Learn about flower-viewing history, bento customs, stadium meals, and seasonal ingredients.
Historical note: hanami has roots earlier than the Edo period. During the Edo period, public flower-viewing outings and communal gatherings became more widespread. The trivia focuses on that growth rather than claiming the custom began then.
