Intro

Quizzes are a great way to help keep the mind active, learn new things and feel good about what we do already know. Even if a person isn’t familiar with the poems in this quiz very well (or at all!), they can still have a go at guessing what word might come next, while also enjoying some beautiful poetry. 

It’s a fun activity that can be enjoyed one-on-one or with up to 6 people.
