Mythical Creatures Quiz

Here is another short but sweet Dementia Cafe Quiz, this time it's about Mythical Creatures & Beings. The idea is the show the images, or print them out, and ask members to name the type of mythical creature that is shown. Some linked songs and refreshments are included to help make the session somewhat more multi-sensory.

What type of mythical creature are they?

As you work through them discuss with members which could be real.
