Here is a straightforward picture quiz to celebrate the colour pink. A good time to play it would be during October which is 'Breast Cancer Awareness Month'. It also sort of ties in with the 'Pride Month' CST activities page, as the pink triangle, originally a sign of Nazi oppression (gay men were made to wear pink triangles) was later reclaimed as an emblem for LGBT Pride.


There are some questions to go with the pictures and some songs are interspersed to enhance engagement and enjoyment.


As usual, you could print the quiz out for members to have a colour copy or click on the first photo and open a slide show, linking across to video clips as and when.


As always, feedback of how these CST activities work in practice is really helpful and keeps me going.


Thank you for your ongoing support x
