Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Hello mother, hello father, Here I'm bathing, in a lather. Can you see that I'm not complaining As I brush my _____ to stop them from decaying!" What part of the body am I brushing?

Answer: Teeth

There are normally 32 teeth in a human adult and these include molar, pre-molar, canine and incisor. They are made up of tissues which include pulp, dentin, enamel and cementum. If teeth are not cleaned regularly, they may start decaying and fall out!

2. "I look handsome in the mirror People think I'm quite a terror. Yes, I've washed behind my _____ And put itching powder in my brother's sneakers!" What part of the body am I washing behind?

Answer: Ears

Each human has two ears, one either side of the head. Ears are used for hearing as they transmit noises from the outside world to tiny receptacles inside the brain. You should always remember to wash behind your ears as part of your daily hygiene routine.

3. "Do you think I'm getting warty For all the bad times I've been naughty. I'd better _____ for forgiveness It was me who stole the pearl from Ma's new necklace!" What word is missing?

Answer: Pray

People pray for good things to happen, regardless of whether they are religious or not. You can pray for a multitude of things including good health, safety and sufficient food on your plate to survive.

4. "I start praying by my pillow, Sometimes truth is hard to swallow. Dressed in 'jamas, and my slippers Don't tell Pa I washed his _____ with his old knickers!" What have I washed with Pa's old knickers?

Answer: Car

Some people DO use their old underwear to dust and clean things, but I prefer using clean cloths fit for their purpose. It is best to use a soft chamois leather cloth for washing a car as it is lovely and soft, and doesn't cause any scratches.

5. "Do you remember Aunty Katie When she started getting flaky? I spiked her _____ with some whisky Then she ran off with a Pole called Sven Madejski!" What is the missing drink?

Answer: Coffee

Coffee is a drink normally consumed by adults. It is made by adding ground coffee beans to hot water, although you can also buy instant coffee which is quicker to make. Most coffee has a large amount of caffeine so it is best for your health to drink de-caffeinated instead.

6. "All my teachers call me cheeky Underhand, and sometimes sneaky. With my slingshot I'd take fire And shoot some _____ at girls lined up in the choir!" What type of food is thrown at the girls?

Answer: Peas

Peas are a type of green vegetable that grow in a long container called a pod. A seed is buried underground, and after several weeks, a green shoot will appear above ground. The young plant will grow in strength, and when they are ripe, the pods can be picked and opened to harvest a row of small sweet peas.

7. "Our pet _____ was a goner When I fed it belladonna. Remember Rex, our friendly staffie? Well I sold it to a man I met in a caf�!" Which animal has died?

Answer: Hamster

Hamsters are small rodents slightly bigger than mice. They make entertaining pets as they love nothing more than to play inside a cage, going round and round inside a wheel. In the wild, they fill their pouches with food which they later store in a secret place to eat during winter when food is scarce.

8. "I'm so sorry for being bad And for making you very sad. I am starting to go bananas Can an _____ come to Earth to teach me manners?" Which celestial being can you see in this picture?

Answer: Angel

Angels are heavenly creatures, often depicted with light feathery wings and a halo above their head. They are beautiful and kind, and are seen as a messenger of God. The most famous angel is Gabriel, known as the 'angel of the Lord'.

9. "Dearest mother, here's some _____ Dearest father, I'll work for hours. Do you think my sins will go If I do my chores and give the grass a mow?" What are these scented blooms called?

Answer: Flowers

Most women love receiving flowers as a gift, either on their birthday, at Christmas, on Mothers Day, Valentine's Day...or just as a way of saying 'I love you'. Favourite flowers include roses, daisies and freesias.

10. "I will help around the house Working quiet as a _____. When I've finished, all I pray Is for you to give me hugs and kisses every day!" What is the missing animal?

Answer: Mouse

Mice is the plural of mouse. They are small rodents which quietly scurry around under floorboards or in fields. They are so quiet that only a cat with sensitive hearing can hear them. This is why there is a saying "quiet as a mouse". The image shown in this quiz is that of a computer mouse, and not a real mouse.
