Want to host trivia for a group of old friends, run a session at a senior center, or just test yourself, but are sick of the same old trivia questions? This book offers more than 2400 original senior trivia questions in an easy-to-use and novel format. Instead of asking questions players can't answer, this book asks questions players can answer, in a wide variety of interesting and specific categories. Players leave feeling proud of what they've accomplished, but still challenged by the ones they didn't know. Included in the book's thought-provoking but accessible categories are Actresses with actor parents, Woodstock, Watergate, War novels (name the war), Robin Hood, and Nursery rhymes. For the reader's convenience, this is "Grab & Go" trivia where you do not spend time selecting questions; each chapter contains one full trivia session, sequenced to maximize interest and variety. These questions have been developed during years of conducting trivia contests at a municipal senior center. We've seen the group's eyes light up as they recall answers they thought they had forgotten, triggering memories from years before. You'll love having the same experience.
