Children’s Challenges
Children’s Poetry Archive Challenge 4
Families come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. These poems are all about family life and the different experiences we all have as we grow up. To find the answers, all you have to do is search through our poems and listen out for the answers – and we’ve given you some clues in the questions to get you started. This is just for fun, but if you like the poems you find, you can click on the heart symbol next to the poem and the poem will be added to your own collection in your MyArchive space so you can share it with your friends. Good luck!
