While Myers-Briggs personality delineations are a more modern creation, the Ingalls family and their friends in Walnut Grove certainly had strong personalities. Whether you are a shining star hard to ignore like Laura, or a quiet soul who supports others behind the scenes, you are sure to align with one of the Little House on the Prairie Characters. Take the quiz below and find out which character you resemble most! Is it Mary, Pa, Miss Beadle, Nels Olsen, Hester-Sue or someone else?
Who did you get? We’d love to hear. Be sure you check out the TV Show page to buy the remastered complete collection on DVD, Blu-ray, or Digital HD. Stay informed about the latest Little House news by subscribing to our free newsletter.
I got Mary! I really wanted Mary because I’m a innovator and an intellectual. I make no excuses for being intelligent and put it to good use. I am an educator and problem solver by nature. Problems are just things I love to tackle- I love the challenge!
ok, i have taken the quiz like 5 times, and i keep getting Laura!! I think she is my match. Everything about her sounds like me!! 😊😍 Laura is my favortite person. My parents use to say I looked, and acted AXACTLY like her! They called me Laura also. That was my nickname.
It seems I’m like Caroline ‘Ma’ Ingalls
You are a problem solver. You see possibilities. Despite being selective in those with whom you associate with, you are fiercely supportive to those that you love.
Sounds about right.
I got Isaiah Edwards
I got Rev. Alden. I always thought I would be a Laura but that is pretty spot-on now that I think about it.
i got willie oleson which im not even a boy. i am a girl and more of a half pint, laura ingalls-wilder type of girl.my ma and pa call me half pint.
I got Laura Ingalls
I got Caroline “Ma” Ingalls. I love each character including Nellie & Willie Olsen. I have been able to learn a great deal from watching Little House on the Prairie several times. It’s halped me a lot, I didn’t think it would help as much as it has.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Thank you for your great & encouraging newsletters about some of the characters you’ve made & the great & encouraging newsletters about some of the actors & actresses. Your talent is incredibly amazing, unique & special.
I got Caroline Ingals
I got Grace Edwards which totally suits my character. But I was hopeing to get Ma, Laura or Mary.
I got Miss Beadle which probably makes sense as I am a teacher, but to be honest I wanted to get Ma (Caroline).
I got Reverend Alden, I really loved his character and can completely understand why I got him.

I got Carolyn “Ma”, Just found this site and love it♥️
I got “Mrs Olsen!”
😀
I got Laura!!!!
I got Reverend Alden, which makes sense to me. Just scanning the other responses, and it looks like no one has confessed to being a Nellie! Puzzles me how anyone could be a Grace, though, since there was very limited development of her character in the books, and almost none in the series.
I got Laura
Me to!

Can you get Carrie? She has been my fave character for ever and I’m trying sooooooo hard to get her 😔
I got Willie Olson.

I got Miss beadle. I’m kinda let down, because I think she doesn’t have much of a personality, except she’s her students’ confidante. I mean, not that she’s terrible or anything, I think she’s actually really sweet, but I don’t think I’m much like her.
I got Grace❤️!

You answer the quiz questions and it ranks your personality based on your answers, and matches you with a Little House character who displays similar character traits.

I got Charles “Pa” Ingalls. It makes sense, because I usually put the needs of others first, and I love my family and consider most of my friends family. I just Quoted him yesterday. I said “As long as you can say that you earned an honest day’s pay, you have a good job.”
I got Willie Oleson…..???
I am a “Doctor Baker.” For the past fourteen years, I have worked in the medical field as a home health aide. I thought Doc Baker was so kind and compassionate on the show. Loved his character!

I got Laura Ingalls I love her so much someday I will meet Melissa Gilbert. I wish I could go see Karen Grassle in New York this spring but Ill be on vacation. Im sad but someday I will see the cast of LHOTP. I am the biggest fan of LHOTP. You could ask me almost any question and I’ll anwer it about the show.
I took the quiz and was delighted to see i got Laura Ingalls. My husband had a crush on her when he was little.
All of us guys had a big crush on Laura in the 70’s & 80’s 😉
So we can confirm that your husband has good taste in women!
I got Ms. Beadle! Makes sense! Fun quiz!!!
I got Miss. Beadle. Love LHOTP
I took the quiz and I got Mr. Edwards.

willie oleson
I got Nelson Olson. I guess that’s a match!

Well I got Laura I must be doing something right but i guess I am like her in a lot of ways !
I got Mr Edwards
I got ” Pa” Charles. I am nuts over this show! !! My soon to be son N law reminds me of Albert. My little Albert has no idea what to think.
WOW
I got Grace Edwards- that’s amazing cause I’ve always loved Isaiah Edwards!!!
I got Charles “PA” Ingalls. I can see that as his character reminds me so much of my grandfather. I guess I am alot like them both. As a matter of fact I call my grandfather “PA” and my mom told me I got that from Little House when I was a child because we lived with my grandparents. And even at the age of 43 now and my grandfather is 84 I still call him that and as the oldest of 9 grandchildren I have always been the only one allowed to call him PA.
I took the quiz and the result was PA Charles Ingalls.I loved this programme when I was little and still enjoy it to this day.
I’m not sure how I take my results! lol I’m so appalled that I can’t even say. lol
Is it Mrs Olson?
Hahaha, Mrs Olsen??
No entiendo inglés….. puede traducirse en español???
Hi,Little House on the Prairie
Oh ,my goodness you are the est show in town ,I am very lucky to seen Mr.Michael Landon,he make me happy !
Love Lol House
it was a big surprise to me to find out that I got Reverend Alden! I love Our little house on the prairie! Thank you for keeping it alive!
I got Reverend Alden as well, I’m not really a loner, I just don’t have friends to hang out with.
I took the Little House on the Praire Quiz and I got “Pa” Charles Ingalls! That’s great because we both have a lot in common! Like he plays the Violin and I play the Violin!
I got Willy! Really? Lol. I didn’t agree until I read what it said and it does sound pretty accurate. My sister and I have always loved the books and the show, I still watch the old reruns over and over and have the dvds as well. It broke my heart when Michael London passed as I’m sure it did many others. I also hope to visit all of Lauren Ingalls Wilder’s historical sites, one of these days. My daughter dressed up as Laura when she was in 3rd grade, for an oral book report she had to do, she was really cute I thought! She doesn’t agree now (she is 26).
Apologies for the auto corrected misspelling of Michael Landon’so name, should’ve proofread better!
I loved the books and would love to visit laura and almonzo’s home some day. I got Grace Edwards.
I got Miss Beadle! I love Laura, her family and her books. It’s time to reread them after all these years. Ive been to Mansfield, MO and De Smet, SD LIW points of interest. I think my favorite book is “The Little House in the Big Woods.”
I got Miss Beadle lol
Doc Baker 🙂
I got “Ma” Ingalls…I like that, good role model…
I got Grace Edwards I love little house and have a whole collection in my room on other quizzes in the past I have either gotten Grace or Mary.
I got Hester-Sue Terhune
I got Dr. Baker
I got Reverend Alden and I can see myself being alot like him he was one of m favorite characters in Little House On The Prairie he was so kind and compassionate towards others and saw good in everyone and didn’t judge anyone and that’s how I try to live I dont always succeed at it but I try. Great quiz I loved it!!
I got Rev Alden…..which is accurate for me because I have always been serious about the spiritual things in life and my Christian walk with Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. Also I am strongly interested in Christian education and helping children learn what the Bible teaches us.
I got Grace. I was not surprised. She too was a strong women in faith and family , just like Caroline. I love little house and hope to visit all the sites someday. On my bucket list.
I got Miss Beadle, and yes, I was a teacher!
I got Mr. Edwards! Didn’t see that coming!
I got Miss Beadle and it makes sense because I am a seasoned veteran school teacher, almost retired. I have been an avid fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder since age 10 in the mid 1960s, having started out first reading “Little House on the Prairie” from my elementary school library. Over the years, my dear mother gifted me with the entire hardback collection which are valuable heirlooms now. I’ve had the wonderful opportunity of visiting all the ‘living sites’ Laura wrote about except Pepin, WI (Little House in the Big Woods) and Malone, NY (Farmer Boy) and was honored to pay my respects at the grave sites in De Smet, SC for the Ingalls Family members as well as Almanzo & Laura Ingalls Wilder and Rose Wilder Lane in Mansfield, MO. During my travels, I have collected all kinds of memorabilia inclusive of more books, pamphlets, postcards, etc. related to Laura and her family. I am so blessed to have been introduced to Laura early in life and to have experienced everything she vividly wrote about in her books.
I got Charles “Pa” Ingalls! He was always my favorite character. Birds of a feather I guess. I haven’t read the Little House books in several years. I think you all just inspired me to bust them out and read them again 🙂
Took the quiz and got Hester-Sue Terhune. That’s cool!
I got Rev. Alden. Which kind of makes sense. I rely on my faith in God a lot. He was one of my favorite characters. I love the show!!!
I got Laura! I loved these books. It is my dearest wish to one day visit the places I’ve read about since I was a little girl. I live in England. Maybe one day!
I love little house, and don’t live too far from Mansfield, Missouri. I have cousins that live in England. Almonzo and Laura lived in Mansfield and are buried there. I watch little house as much as possible, it’s one of my favorite shows. ?
Maybe so!
This comment gives me goosebumps. I have the same feeling.
I took the quiz and was totally compared to laura. I have grew up near her home in mansfield and would always play as i was laura. I to this day watch little house on both hallmark and insp channels. I also have all her books and little house dvd set. I also own so many things that I purchased at Laura’s gift shop in mansfield missouri. Can’t wait to visit the new museum in july. My Dad lives just few blocks from her house. I also visit her and Almanzo’s grave there and put flowers. Laura will always live in my heart.
That’s so cool that you live so close to Laura and Almanzo’s home!!
Nels Oleson
I received Laura Ingals. I thought I would get Mary or Caroline.
I got Pa Ingalls and I think that is right as it is. Love the books have them all and have ll the DVD’S also. So every few years I do a marathon of watching and enjoying again and again..
Also in the Netherlands it is one of the series everybody loves.
I got Hester Sue. This test is spot on!! LOVE LHOP!! I have the complete series on cd and have watched all of them more than I can count! My daughter is addicted to the show also!!
I got Hester Sue too. I think it fits.
I GOT LAURA INGALLS
nice! i also got Laura Ingalls!
I was Rev. Aldan. Not bad at all. 🙂
I got Doc Baker. Never in a million years would I have likened myself to him, but reading the description and thinking about the country doctor, I can totally see it.
Yes! The personality quiz went beyond gender and occupation to really analyze the character traits behind them. 🙂 I’m glad you found it insightful!
My all time favorite from the series is Grace Snyder-Edwards. She was my favorite as a little girl. I loved all the other characters, but she was always my favorite.
I got Pa…..Charles Ingals ….
I’ll take it!!! ??❤
i got pa charles ingals
I enjoyed this series I can watch it over and over and over. I don’t think I’ve ever missed an episode. I even have the whole book collection. It’s nice to see it still out there on the TV 2 watch
I got carlyne ingells.

I watch the episodes all the time and when it ended, I cried at the last episode.
I got Nels Oleson. Never thought about it, but I think that’s spot on.
I love the story.
I enjoyed your shows emencely, I just wished that it was still on tv.
it is on the hallmark channel every day around 2 or 3pm EST
They have reruns on every day if you have cable, on a couple of different channels. One of the Christian channels, I think INSP, is one of them.
Thanks
I love them all. I love little house on the prairie.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE T.V SHOWS I HAVE INTO DUCE THESE SHOWS TO MY CHILDERS THEY IN JOY AS WELL THANK YOU
I love watching Little House. I grew up watching it and still do.
Oh my god you’re watching it what channel where I’m in Trono Canada are you
I got Doc Baker, which I never in a million years would have guessed I would get!
I am Laura 🤩 not surprised though. I am basically just like her.
Im also Laura!! I’m SO obsessed to Laura. My parents say that I look exactly like her, and that I act ALOT like her. My mom says we could almost be twins. I think I would make a good match to her. Every body calls me Laura also. That’s my nickname.
I am Nels Olsen
Nels Olsen
Me too! I really didn’t think I would get him either. I thought I would get Laura, it makes the most sense in my oponion.
