- Quaker Meeting (child's game)
Quaker Meeting, or "Quaker's Meeting", is a child's game which is initiated with a rhyme and becomes a sort of quiet game where the participants may not speak, laugh, or smile. The rhyme has many variations, but is similar to the following:
Quaker meeting has begun. No more laughing, no more fun. If you show your teeth or tongue, you must pay a forfeit.
