About the show

The bell has rung and it’s time for class!  The smash hit game show “Are You Smarter Than A 10 Year Old?” gives New Zealanders the chance to win big money – or face the shame of being beaten by a bunch of 10-year-old school kids.   All they have to do is answer primary school level questions for their chance to win up to $100,000 – and prove they really are smarter than the resident cast of 10-year-olds.  The contestants are even allowed to cheat! They can sneak a peek at one of the 10-year-old’s answers and decide whether or not to use it. They can copy a 10-year-old’s answer. And if they get an answer wrong, one of the kids could even save them with a correct answer.

What could be easier? Beating primary-schoolers at their own game should be like taking candy from kids, right? Wrong! This hilarious and addictive game show reveals that even the smartest adults find it tough to outsmart a smarty-pants 10-year-old! Beat the odds – and those brainy kids – and they could win $100,000! But fail to remember those primary school facts and figures and they’ll have to face the nation and admit ... “I am not smarter than a 10-year-old!”.
